In an image forming apparatus employing an electrophotographic process in which a toner image formed on a photosensitive body is primarily transferred to an intermediate transfer body, and thereafter a secondary transfer is provided on a transfer medium, surface roughness RzD1 of the photosensitive body is set to 0.01 to 10 mum, and surface roughness RzD2 of the intermediate transfer body is set to 1 to 30 mum, moreover being RzD1<RZD2. Concavo-convex slots approximately in parallel in a progressing direction may be formed over at least all image preparing region of the surface of the intermediate transfer body. As a developing toner, preferably, a spherical toner is employed. According to the image forming apparatus as described, a quantity of waste toner can be reduced, and it is possible to prevent deterioration of image quality of scattering of toner, slip-out of images, a mixture of colors or the like.
