ABSTRACT:
In an electrophotographic image forming apparatus, a photoconductive element includes a photoconductive film having a thickness of 15 .mu.m or below. A light beam having a diameter of 50 .mu.m or below optically forms a latent image on the photoconductive element. Toner is caused to deposit on a dot image in an amount 1.2 times greater than on an area image. This is successful to minimize the variation of image quality and to render dots inconspicuous. The method of forming toner images is also included.
