Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a detection unit (control unit) configured to detect operation information of the image forming apparatus and a controller (control unit) configured to apply an AC voltage to a charging roller by a charging power source during a non-image-forming operation of the image forming apparatus. The controller is configured to control the duration for which the AC voltage is applied on the basis of the operation information detected by the detection unit.

Claim (Index 8):
The image forming apparatus according to  claim 7 , wherein a transfer voltage applied to the transfer member is changed during a period in which the pulsed voltage is applied to the charging member by the voltage application device during the non-image-forming operation of the image forming apparatus.
