ABSTRACT:
An image forming apparatus, including toner image agitating units installed between transfer locations and charging locations of a plurality of image forming portions disposed on a transfer carrier belt, reducing adhesion of residual toner to photosensitive conductors. Toner agitating intensities by the toner image agitating units increase in a direction in which the transfer carrier belt transfers paper. Accordingly, a degradation of the quality of an image due to the residual toner is substantially prevented, leading to an improvement in the printing quality. Also, due to adequate distribution of loads upon the photosensitive conductors, the manufacturing costs and life spans of the photosensitive conductors may be reasonably controlled while keeping a high quality image.
