| Zusammenfassung: | An image forming apparatus includes a rotatable image bearing member; a first charging member for electrically charging the image bearing member; a second charging member, provided downstream of the first charging member with respect to a rotational direction of the image bearing member, for electrically charging the image bearing member; an applying device for applying a voltage to the first charging member and the second charging member; a detecting device for a DC current passing through the second charging member; and a controller for controlling, when an AC voltage and a DC voltage are applied to the second charging member while a DC voltage is applied to the first charging member, the DC voltage applied to the second charging member so that an absolute value of the DC current detected by the detecting device is within a predetermined range. |
