ABSTRACT:
In a relatively simple copier lacking a discharging unit which erases those portions of a photoconductive element which precede and follow an image, a control device reduces the amount of toner consumed and the amount of toner collected while preventing toner from being scattered around. For a surface portion of the photoconductive element which is associated with a trailing edge portion of a paper to which the image is to be transferred, a charging operation of a charger adapted to charge the photoconductive drum and a charging operation of a transfer charger are stopped. A bias voltage to be applied to a surface portion of the photoconductive element which follows the above-mentioned surface portion is increased.
