An image forming apparatus includes a head mounting portion for mounting an ink jet recording head for discharging ink liquid having a coloring material from an ink discharge port. Also included is a process liquid storing member for storing a process liquid for condensing the coloring material in the ink liquid. A process liquid supply roller is arranged immersibly in the process liquid stored in the process liquid storing member. The process liquid supply roller does not contact a recording surface of the recording medium. A process liquid coating roller coats the recording surface with the process liquid supplied through the process liquid supply roller, the process liquid coating roller being provided so that a peripheral surface of the process liquid coating roller is contactable with the recording surface upstream of a conveyance direction of the recording medium with respect to the head mounting portion.
