Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a controller executing a setting mode for setting a voltage to be applied to an image transfer member when a toner image is transferred onto a transfer medium, so that a predetermined current flows through a charging member when such an area of an image bearing drum as has carried the toner image transferred onto a transfer medium at a transfer portion then passes through a charge portion, the setting being executed on the basis of a current detected by a first detecting member when such a region of the drum as has been charged by the charging member and has been passed through the transfer portion in a state that a test voltage is applied to the transfer member then passes through the charge portion in a period in which no toner image passes through the transfer portion.
