Abstract
An image forming apparatus that can prevent image deletion in carrying out image formation upon turning-on of power supply after main power supply is turned off before the image forming apparatus goes into a sleep state. A movable member is moved between a shielding position at which it shields a photosensitive drum from a charger and a retracting position at which the photosensitive drum and the charger are opened to each other. When power supply is turned on, a time period for which the photosensitive drum is rotated by a driving unit is controlled according to the position of the movable member detected by a movable member sensor.
