IMAGE FORMING DEVICE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming device that has high conveyance property of a recording material on the downstream side of a transfer section and can prevent image failure where an unfixed developer image on the recording material is disturbed. SOLUTION: The image forming device comprises an electricity removing means 71 that is disposed between a transferring means 51 and a fixing means 60 in the axial direction crossing the conveying direction of the recording material S, has a plurality of projections 71a in a predetermined pitch in a range larger than a conveyance region of the recording material S in the axial direction, and is used for removing electricity of the recording material S conveyed from the transferring means 51, and a recording material conveying means 72 that is disposed between the transferring means 51 and the fixing means 60 on the downstream side of the electricity removing means 71 in the conveying direction of the recording material S and is used for conveying the recording material S. A recording material conveyance surface D of the recording material conveying means 72 lies on the downstream side of a conveyance locus (a) of the recording material S conveyed by the transferring means 51, and is disposed at a position where the projections 71a of the electricity removing means 71 substantially matches with the center of the recording material conveying means 72 in the axial direction.
