Abstract:
After primary transfer, in a state where a pressing force of a primary transfer brush is released to separate an intermediate transfer belt from a photosensitive drum, current is impeded to the primary transfer brush. After that, the total current supplied from a secondary transfer roller and a conductive brush is set as a total current whose value is smaller than that of the total current supplied during the primary transfer.

Claim (Index 2):
The image forming apparatus according to  claim 1 , further comprising:\n a facing member that faces the current supply unit with the intermediate transfer belt interposed therebetween; and a constant voltage element that is electrically connected to the facing member and the abutting member and maintains the facing member and the abutting member at a predetermined voltage by the first total current and the second total current being supplied through the facing member.
