Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a controller to execute a first mode for forming a toner image on a recording medium, in which a maximum toner carrying amount per unit area is a first maximum toner carrying amount, and a second mode for forming a toner image on the recording medium, in which the maximum toner carrying amount per unit is a second maximum toner carrying amount larger than the first maximum toner carrying amount. In the first mode, the controller sets a circumferential speed ratio of the toner bearing member against an image bearing member at a first circumferential speed ratio, and in the second mode the controller sets the circumferential speed ratio at a second circumferential speed ratio higher than the first circumferential speed ratio. The controller executes the second mode upon an order of the second mode by an operator.

Claim (Index 51):
An image forming apparatus according to  claim 50 , wherein in a case that an image forming job is performed such that the first mode continues after the second mode is executed, the controller sets the circumferential speed ratio at the second circumferential speed ratio in each of the first mode and the second mode.
