PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming device that can recycle toner liquid which is collected by a cleaning unit and remains on an image carrier to a developing device again. SOLUTION: A cleaning roller 6 abuts on an image carrier B. The diameter of the cleaning roller 6 gradually becomes smaller toward end parts. Toner liquid collected by the cleaning roller 6 flows toward the end parts whose diameters are small. A squeezing roller 8, which is installed at the tip part of the cleaning roller, crosses the outermost periphery of the cleaning roller 6, comes in parallel to the shaft of the cleaning roller 6 and peels off toner liquid from the cleaning roller 6. Toner which is peeled off is delivered to a tube 10 extending to a developing device by a delivery means 9 which is supported by the cleaning roller 6 and is driven by the rotation of the cleaning roller 6. |
