Abstract
In the case where development is performed by a two-component developing method, a previous charge removal light-emitting portion applies charge removal light to a first charge removal target region of an effective outer circumferential surface of a photosensitive member on which effective outer circumferential surface an electrostatic latent image can be formed. The first charge removal target region includes a part of a magnetic brush contact region of the effective outer circumferential surface and a region of the effective outer circumferential surface between the magnetic brush contact region and a transfer position of a toner image.
