Abstract:
A charged positive toner having a positive polarity that attaches to a charge roller is moved from the charge roller to a photosensitive drum, and the positive toner is transferred to an intermediate transfer belt at a primary transfer portion at which a primary-transfer power supply forms an electric potential having a negative polarity. The primary-transfer power supply forms an electric potential having the positive polarity at the primary transfer portion, and the positive toner transferred to the intermediate transfer belt is moved together with the intermediate transfer belt and is collected by the charge roller in contact with a downstream photosensitive drum.

Claim (Index 4):
The image forming apparatus according to  claim 3 ,\n wherein the first developing unit develops the electrostatic latent image formed on the first image-bearing member with the first developing unit in contact with the first image-bearing member, and wherein the control unit causes the first developing unit to separate from the first image-bearing member before the application of the voltage having the first polarity to the first charge member from the charge power supply is stopped.
