Image forming apparatus capable of forming an erasable image

摘要

An image forming apparatus capable of forming both of erasable images and images to be stored, and increasing the number of times that a single sheet with an image can be repetitively decolorized and reused. The apparatus includes a photoconductive element for electrostatically forming a latent image representative of image data. A developing device develops the latent image formed on the photoconductive element by either of an ordinary undecolorizable toner and a decolorizable toner.
