ABSTRACT:
An image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member; a charging member contactable the image bearing member to charge the image bearing member at a charging position; wherein an AC current applied to the charging member is constant-current-controlled when a region of the image bearing member which is going to be an image formation region is at the charging position, and wherein a current flowing through the charging member is detected when a region of the image bearing member which is going to be a non-image-formation region is at the charging position, and the AC current is determined on the basis of the detected current.
