A toned image is formed on an image receiving member by an image forming apparatus. The image forming apparatus includes an intermediate belt, at least one image forming device, and a transferring device. In one embodiment, the intermediate belt includes a conductive substrate and a topcoat insulating layer to receive the toned image so as to avoid lateral conduction of charges. In another embodiment, the image forming apparatus includes an intermediate belt having a semiconductive substrate and biasing means for biasing a transfer zone, pre-transfer zone and post-transfer area of the substrate.
