Image forming apparatus which uses a liquid developer containing toner particles and a solvent to form an image on a rotatable latent image forming unit and transfer the image to a paper receptor. In one embodiment, the image forming apparatus includes a developing unit disposed adjacent to the latent image forming unit and configured to apply the liquid developer to a latent image on the latent image forming unit, a solvent reducing unit disposed adjacent to the developing unit and configured to reduce the solvent content of a developed image formed on the latent image forming unit, a transfer unit facing the latent image forming unit, an inner case including a frame having a opening arranged adjacent to the transfer unit, and an out case housing the inner case. The inner case supports the latent image retaining body, the latent image forming unit, the developing unit, and the solvent reducing unit inside of the frame.
