Zusammenfassung:A charging device includes: a charging member; a charging power source that applies a charging voltage to the charging member; a temperature dependence storage unit that stores preset temperature dependence; a humidity dependence storage unit that stores preset humidity dependence; an ambient temperature detecting unit that detects an ambient temperature in the vicinity of the charging member; an ambient humidity detecting unit that detects an ambient humidity in the vicinity of the charging member; and a charging voltage control unit that applies the charging voltage to the charging member according to (i) a constant current value that is determined according to the temperature dependence as corresponding to the detected ambient temperature or (ii) a constant current value that is determined according to the humidity dependence as corresponding to the detected ambient temperature and the detected ambient humidity.
