Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member, a transfer member, a voltage source, a current detecting portion, and a controller. In a case that the predetermined voltage is changed in a first job on the basis of the detection result of the current detecting portion during passing of the recording material through the transfer portion, in a second job subsequent to the first job, when a first recording material of the second job passes through the transfer portion, the controller changes a voltage applied to the transfer member on the basis of the predetermined voltage changed in the first job.
