IMAGE FORMING DEVICE

PURPOSE: To provide an image forming device having an intermediate transfer body capable of preventing transfer performance from being deteriorated without adding a special device. CONSTITUTION: A corona discharger for transfer 190 successively developing an electrostatic latent image on a photoreceptor 100 with toner of each color and transferring a developed image on the 1st transfer position of the intermediate transfer body 200 is provided with a corona discharge wire 195 and a dielectric elastic sheet 190b. The sheet 190b is constituted of the same material as the intermediate transfer body 200 or has the same electrifying performance as the transfer body 200, and the leading edge of the sheet 190b comes in contact with the intermediate transfer body 200. The sheet 190b coming in contact with the intermediate transfer body 200 turning at the same speed as the photoreceptor 100 has the same quality or has the same electrifying performance as the intermediate transfer body 200, so that electrification by friction is not caused, and sure transfer is performed without exerting an influence on corona discharge.
