A transfer apparatus includes a transfer unit, a first detector, a supplying unit, a second detector, and a controller. The transfer unit transfers a toner image onto an object. The first detector detects humidity. The supplying unit supplies, to the transfer unit, a transfer voltage, a setting voltage in a first case, and a setting current in a second case. The second detector detects a current flowing through the transfer unit upon supply of the setting voltage and a voltage across the transfer unit upon supply of the setting current. The controller controls the supplying unit such that, when transfer is performed in the first case, a transfer voltage derived using the setting voltage and the detected current is supplied, and when transfer is performed in the second case, a transfer voltage derived using the setting current and the detected voltage is supplied to the transfer unit.

Cleaning device, charging device, and image forming apparatus

An image forming apparatus includes an image carrier, an endless intermediate transfer member having a transport surface and being tensioned to transport a developer image, transferred from the image carrier to the intermediate transfer member, from a first transfer position to a second transfer position, a first transfer member that brings the intermediate transfer member in contact with the image carrier and transfers a developer image present on the image carrier to the intermediate transfer member at the first transfer position, a second transfer member that transfers the developer image to a recording medium at the second transfer position, a position adjusting member that adjusts a position of the transport surface of the intermediate transfer member downstream of the first transfer position, and a controller that controls the position adjusting member responsively to a type of the recoding medium to which the second transfer member transfers the developer image.

Image forming apparatus including position adjusting member

A transfer apparatus includes a transfer belt that conveys a toner image which has been transferred to an outer periphery face thereof; a transfer member that, at a contact portion, causes the toner image to be transferred from the outer periphery face of the transfer belt to a recording medium; an opposing roller that is disposed to oppose the transfer member at an inner periphery side of the transfer belt; an opposing belt that is wound round the opposing roller; and a tension member that is disposed at an upstream side of a conveyance direction of the transfer belt relative to the opposing roller, the opposing belt being wound round the tension member, and the tension member causing the opposing belt to touch against the inner side of the transfer belt at the upstream side relative to the contact portion.

Transfer apparatus and image forming device

A cleaning device, comprises: a plurality of brush rolls being contact with a surface of the image carrier that a toner is attached; and a biasing unit applying bias voltages having different polarities from each other to at least two of the brush rolls, the plurality of brush rolls including a first brush roll and a second brush roll, a bias having a polarity opposite to a normal polarity of the toner being applied to the first brush roll, a bias having the same polarity as the normal polarity of the toner being applied to the second brush roll, a surface circulating speed of the first brush roll being set to be higher than the surface circulating speed of the second brush roll.

It is an object to provide a print service system capable of easily giving, from a moving destination, a print order of a digital image photographed at the moving destination and immediately acquiring a necessary print. A user requiring to print a digital image fetches digital image information to a mobile telephoneand transmits the digital image information, together with order request information, to a print order receiving server through a network. The order request information includes print condition information. When receiving the digital image information and the print condition information, the print order receiving servertransmits digital image information to be printed to a printer server to be a printing destination corresponding to a print condition. At the printing destination, an order print created based on the information transmitted to the print server is delivered to a registered delivery destination which is transmitted.
