Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member; a transfer member configured to form a transfer portion where the toner image is transferred from the image bearing member by being supplied with a transfer bias; a carrier liquid supplying portion configured to supply the carrier liquid to the transfer portion; a transfer bias voltage source capable of applying the transfer bias to the transfer portion; a detecting portion configured to detect at least one of a voltage and a current at the transfer portion; and a setting portion configured to set the transfer bias during non-image-formation on the basis of a detection result of the detecting portion when a setting bias is applied from the transfer member in a state in which the carrier liquid is in the transfer portion.

Claim (Index 14):
The image forming apparatus according to  claim 12 , wherein in the predetermined period said controller is configured to control said source and said developing device so as to supply the test bias to said transfer device after a leading end of the region overlapping a first region and a second region of said image bearing member passes through the transfer portion, the first region of said image bearing member passing through the developing portion after supplying the developing bias to said developer bearing member, and the second region of said image bearing member passing through the developing portion after moving said developer bearing member from the spaced position to the developing position.
