Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a latent image bearer, an electrostatic latent image forming device, a potential sensor, a toner image forming device, a toner adhesion amount detector, and circuitry. The circuitry controls the electrostatic latent image forming device to create an adjustment pattern on the latent image bearer when the image forming apparatus is not printing, controls the potential sensor to detect an electric potential of the adjustment pattern, controls the electrostatic latent image forming device and the toner image forming device to create a test toner image during a printing period, controls the toner adhesion amount detector to detect a toner adhesion amount of the test toner image, and adjusts at least one image forming condition of the electrostatic latent image forming device and the toner image forming device based on the electric potential of the adjustment pattern and the toner adhesion amount of the test toner image.

Claim (Index 9):
The image forming apparatus according to  claim 8 ,\n wherein the circuitry adjusts the setting value of the image forming condition also using the electric potential of the adjustment pattern created on the latent image bearer without executing the image density fluctuation control during the non-printing period and the toner adhesion amount of the test toner image created and developed on the latent image bearer while executing the image density fluctuation control.
