ABSTRACT:
An image forming apparatus capable of preventing a toner from being left on a photosensitive member upon turning off a developing bias for jumping development. A phase detecting circuit generates a phase detection signal which becomes H level when the developing bias is positive, whereas becoming L level when the developing bias is negative. A phase controller generates a phase-controlled developing bias off signal to an output controller at a timing when the phase detection signal changes from H level to L level for the first time after the phase controller receives a developing bias off signal from a CPU. Then, the output controller stops oscillation of an oscillating circuit, thereby turning off the developing bias at a timing when the toner has returned from the photosensitive member to a developing unit. Accordingly, the toner is prevented from being left on the photosensitive member upon turning off the developing bias.
