IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electrophotographic image forming device capable of yielding an image excellent in the reproducibility of a thin line without causing adhesion on a sleeve. SOLUTION: An electrostatic latent image on a latent image carrier (photoreceptor) is developed by using toner including particles whose particle size is 2.0 to 4.0 μm by 30 to 70 number % in a state where a developer regulating member for regulating the amount of developer is grounded and electric field is formed in a gap between the developer regulating member and a developing sleeve.
