Zusammenfassung:An image forming apparatus includes an image carrier, a developing device that supplies a toner to the image carrier, and a cleaning member. The cleaning member includes a blade that contacts the image carrier and applies a pressure onto the image carrier. The blade has two ends that are bent in a direction toward the image carrier, wherein the blade forms cleaning angles with the image carrier at the two ends of the blade, that are smaller than cleaning angles formed with the image carrier in other portions of the blade.
