Abstract:
An image forming apparatus including a controller configured to control a first and a second voltage applied to a transfer device when transferring an image to a first and a second side of a recording material, respectively, the controller performing a mode that outputs a test chart on which at least one of a plurality of first test images for adjusting the first voltage and a plurality of second test images for adjusting the second voltage is formed, wherein in a case of forming the second test images on a second side of the test chart, and before forming the second test images, the controller forms a plurality of predetermined toner images under a same image forming condition on a first side of the test chart so that predetermined toner images are formed on a plurality of predetermined areas overlapping each area where the second test images to be formed.

Claim (Index 9):
An image forming apparatus, comprising:\n an image bearing member configured to move while bearing a toner image; a toner image forming portion configured to form the toner image on the image bearing member; a transfer device configured to transfer the toner image borne on the image bearing member to a recording material; a power source configured to apply a transfer voltage to the transfer device; and a controller configured to control a first transfer voltage that is applied to the transfer device when transferring an image to a first side of the recording material and a second transfer voltage that is applied to the transfer device when transferring an image to a second side of the recording material, wherein the controller is configured to perform a mode that outputs a test chart, wherein a plurality of first test images for adjusting the first transfer voltage are formed on a first side of the test chart and a plurality of second test images for adjusting the second transfer voltage are formed on a second side of the test chart, and wherein in the mode, the controller forms the first test images and the second test images so that the first and second test images do not overlap each other with respected to a thickness direction of the test chart.
