Abstract

An image forming apparatus including plural capacitive loads, with one terminal of each of the capacitive loads being connected to a common electrode and with each of the capacitive loads being charged/discharged on the basis of image data, and a first and second drive circuits is provided. The first drive circuit includes plural charge/discharge controllers that are individually connected to other terminals of the capacitive loads and individually control the charging and discharging of the capacitive loads and first and second electrical power wires that are connected to the charge/discharge controllers and charge and discharge the capacitive loads via the charge/discharge controllers. The second drive circuit is connected to each of the first and second electrical power wires and adjusts charge resistance and discharge resistance in response to control of the charge/discharge controllers.
