ABSTRACT:
An image forming device is provided that is capable of easily preventing occurrence of stripe-like image noise that may be caused by intimate contact between a contact electrifying member and an image carrier even when an image forming operation is stopped for a while. In the image forming device having an electrifying roller in contact with a photoconductor, AC voltage is applied to the electrifying roller before the image carrier and the electrifying roller start rotating.
