ABSTRACT:
An image forming apparatus is capable of forming a good image without a color shade and a dropped color by coating uniformly photosensitive toner particles on a supporting member. The image forming apparatus includes a coating amount detecting unit for detecting an amount of the photosensitive toner particles coated on the supporting member, in the vicinity of a coating unit. Therefore, the image forming apparatus can determined whether a required amount of the photosensitive toner particles is coated on the supporting member, or not. When a required amount of the photosensitive toner particles is coated on the supporting member, an exposure operation is executed. When there is a part on the supporting member which is not coated with enough photosensitive toner particles, the coating unit is operated again. This processing is repeated until the whole of the supporting member is coated with the enough photosensitive toner particles. After this, the exposure operation is executed.
