Abstract
The control unit of an image forming apparatus applies, with a voltage application unit, a collection voltage to a cleaning roller when an image is formed, estimates a surface potential of an image carrying member based on a current flowing between the image carrying member and the cleaning roller which is detected by a current detection unit when the collection voltage is applied and changes the collection voltage and the rotation speed of the cleaning roller when the surface potential of the image carrying member is lowered.
