WET-TYPE IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To form a high quality image by suppressing the occurence of particle unevenness.SOLUTION: A wet-type image forming apparatus 100 comprises: image forming means for forming a toner image on an image carrier 30; carrier liquid quantity adjusting means 33; density detecting means 43; and control means 40. The image forming means forms a patch image on the image carrier 30, the patch image formed on the image carrier 30 is transferred onto a recording medium 50 by changing the quantity of the carrier liquid by the carrier liquid quantity adjusting means 33, and the control means 40 calculates the quantity of the carrier liquid when the image density of the patch image transferred onto the recording medium 50 is a predetermined value or more, based on a value of the image density of the patch image detected by the density detecting means 43.
