To provide an image forming apparatus capable of maintaining transfer efficiency for transferring a toner image from an intermediate transfer member to a recording medium. For example, an image forming apparatus including an electrophotographic photosensitive member, a charging device, an exposure device, a developing device, an intermediate transfer member, a primary transfer device, a secondary transfer device, and an intermediate transfer member cleaning device. In the apparatus 101, as the developer, a developer containing toner in which inorganic particles are externally added to toner particles is applied, and as the intermediate transfer member 50, a surface whose surface includes resin material and fluororesin particles is applied. The intermediate transfer body cleaning device 54 includes a cleaning blade (the first cleaning blade 56 or the second cleaning blade 57). [Selection] Figure 1 |
