A medium transport device includes a transport belt that is disposed in such a manner as to face an image holding unit holding an image and that is capable of moving circularly so as to transport a medium, a first stretching roller that stretches a portion of the transport belt and that is disposed in such a manner as to face the image holding unit, the first stretching roller being configured to transport the medium by nipping the medium between the image holding unit and the transport belt and configured to transfer the image held by the image holding unit onto the medium, a second stretching roller that stretches a portion of the transport belt that is located downstream from the portion of the transport belt stretched by the first stretching roller in a transport direction of the medium, a contact adjusting unit that causes a second end of the first stretching roller in an axial direction of the first stretching roller to swing while a first end of the first stretching roller serves as a fulcrum and adjusts a contact state between the image holding unit and the transport belt in a longitudinal direction of a contact region between the image holding unit and the transport belt, and a position adjusting unit that keeps a distance between the center of the first stretching roller and the center of the second stretching roller constant and adjusts a position of the second stretching roller with respect to the first stretching roller by causing a second end of the second stretching roller to swing while a first end of the second stretching roller serves as a fulcrum.

A cleaning device is provided with: a cleaning component that cleans waste toner from an image holder, the image holder holding, on a surface thereof, a toner image formed by an image forming component and moving in a circulating manner; and a waste toner conveying component that conveys the waste toner toward a waste toner storage unit. The cleaning device has a receiving opening through which waste powder recovered from the image forming component is received, and the waste powder received through the receiving opening is conveyed to the waste toner storage unit by being passed through inside the cleaning device.

Cleaning device, waste toner recovery device, and image forming device

An image forming apparatus includes a first unit, a second unit, a first adjusting member, and a second adjusting member. The first unit includes an endless first belt member and a first rotating member that rotates while supporting the first belt member. The second unit includes a rotatable second rotating member that opposes the first rotating member with the first belt member interposed therebetween. The first adjusting member is disposed on either one of the first unit and the second unit to adjust a load between the first rotating member and the second rotating member. The second adjusting member is disposed on the other one of the first unit and the second unit to adjust parallelism between the first rotating member and the second rotating member.

Adjusting mechanism of image forming apparatus

A medium transport device includes a transport member and a guide member. The transport member supports and transports a medium. The guide member is shifted from the transport member in a width direction of the medium to guide the medium. The guide member includes contact portions that come into contact with the medium. The contact portions are spaced apart from one another in a transport direction of the medium.
