Abstract

A control portion can perform an image formation mode to perform image formation while controlling, based on the relationship between a charging current and the surface potential on an image carrying member, a charging voltage and thereby adjusting the surface potential and a correction mode to correct the relationship between the charging current and the surface potential. In the correction mode, the control portion calculates the surface potential on the image carrying member based on the developing voltage applied and the developing current sensed by a developing current sensing portion and corrects the relationship between the charging current and the surface potential based on the calculated surface potential.
