Abstract:
Provided is an image forming apparatus including an image bearing member, a charging member, an exposing member, a developer carrying member, a storage member to store a first lifetime threshold for the first image forming mode, a second lifetime threshold for the second image forming mode and a value related to a driving amount of the image bearing member. The image forming apparatus further includes a controller to (i) perform a first determination regarding the lifetime corresponding to the first mode based on the value related to the driving amount and the first lifetime threshold and (ii) perform a second determination regarding the lifetime corresponding to the second mode based on the value related to the driving amount and the second lifetime threshold, and a notifying unit to perform a notification based on a result of the first or second determination to the image bearing member.

Claim (Index 2):
The image forming apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the second lifetime threshold corresponds to a lifetime shorter than a lifetime that the first lifetime threshold corresponds to, and\n the controller allows an operation in the first image forming mode after the second notification based on the second determination is performed.
