Abstract:
An image forming apparatus in which when toner remaining on a development roller in an area from a developer nip to a regulating blade disposed upstream of a rotation direction of the development roller during a stoppage of the image forming apparatus passes through the developer nip, a bias is applied so that the toner is drawn to the development roller, and a relative speed difference between the photosensitive drum and the development roller is created so as to be larger than the that during an image forming operation.

Claim (Index 3):
The image forming apparatus according to  claim 2 ,\n wherein the speed control unit is adapted to increase the circumferential velocity of the developer carrying member so that the relative speed difference is larger than that during the image forming operation.
