Abstract
In a case that a toner concentration of a liquid developer in a mixer is high and a liquid amount is small, when a supply flow rate of a carrier liquid by a carrier supplying pump is set, a 'carrier amount for concentration adjustment' is preferentially assigned. Then, a remaining one is assigned to a 'carrier amount for liquid amount adjustment'. By doing so, by a non-interacting function, a supply agent can be supplied to the mixer. That is, the carrier liquid can be supplied by decreasing the supply agent so that a liquid amount can be easily satisfied while improving followability of a toner concentration.
