An object of the present invention is to provide an image forming apparatus capable of effectively removing a transfer residual toner on a photoconductor with a cleaning blade, preventing filming and printing a high quality image. Toner is supplied to a latent image formed on the surface of a photoconductor to make a visible image, and then the visible image on the surface of the photoconductor is transferred to a transfer medium, and residual toner is transferred to a cleaning blade. It is characterized by comprising fine particle supply means 80 for adhering fine particles having an average particle diameter of 50 to 500 nm to the photoconductor 40 before contact.
