Abstract
A wet color image forming apparatus to transfer a color image using electrostatic force and pressure and a method of forming an image with the wet color image forming apparatus. The wet color image forming apparatus includes photosensitive bodies, developing units, a transfer belt, a paper transfer roller, and a multi-function roller. The photosensitive bodies form latent electrostatic images corresponding to image information input from the outside. The transfer belt is driven and the paper transfer roller is supported during the transfer of the image to the paper by the multi-function roller. The transfer belt includes a surface layer that contacts the photosensitive bodies and the paper transfer roller, a first cushion layer that contacts the multi-function roller, and a second cushion layer between the surface layer and the first cushion layer and has a lower hardness than the first cushion layer.
