ABSTRACT:
A voltage is supplied to a charging member by a voltage supplying device, the charging member contacts a photosensitive body, which is rotating in a predetermined direction, in order to charge its surface, temperature of the charging member is detected by a temperature detector, and the voltage to be supplied by the voltage supplying device is corrected by a voltage correcting device in accordance with the result of detection by the temperature detector. At that time, since the quality of an image is stabilized by correction of a reference supplying voltage in accordance with a target electric potential variable depending on change of temperature of the charging member, the electric potential to be charged to the surface of the photosensitive body has a plurality of target values, a reference value of the voltage to be supplied by the voltage supplying device is set per each target value, and a correction rule for a supplying voltage to be corrected by the voltage correcting device is made different by a correction rule changing device per each reference value for a target value of each electric potential to be charged.
