ABSTRACT:
An image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member, latent image forming device for forming an electrostatic image on the image bearing member, the latent image forming device having a charging member contactable to the image bearing member to electrically charge the image bearing member, and the charging member being supplied with a voltage which includes an oscillation component, a developing device for developing the electrostatic latent image with toner into a toner image, the developing device being capable of removing residual toner from the image bearing member, a transfer device for transferring the toner image from the image bearing member onto a transfer material, and a frequency control device for controlling a frequency of the oscillation component so that the frequency is higher when at least a part of such an area of the image bearing member as is going to be a non-image area is charged than when such an area of the image bearing member as is going to be an image area is charged.
