Abstract:
A transfer device includes a holding body, a transfer body, and a setting portion. The holding body holds multiple layers including a base layer formed of a toner having a mass larger than a threshold. The toner is electrically charged by a charging device. The transfer body transfers the layers on the holding body to a recording medium. The setting portion sets the charging device so that the charging device electrically charges a toner immediately after being transferred to the holding body with a larger amount of electric charges when the base layer is located uppermost on the holding body, than when the base layer is located other than uppermost on the holding body.

Claim (Index 6):
The transfer device according to  claim 2 , further comprising:\n a first developing device that serves as the charging device and develops a first latent image with a toner into a base layer located uppermost on the holding body, the first latent image being held on a first image carrier on which an image held by the holding body is formed; and a second developing device that serves as the charging device and develops a second latent image with a toner into a base layer located other than uppermost on the holding body, the second latent image being held on a second image carrier on which an image held by the holding body is formed, wherein the setting portion sets the first developing device and the second developing device so that the first developing device and the second developing device electrically charge a toner with which the first latent image is developed with a larger amount of electric charges than a toner with which the second latent image is developed.
