Abstract:
The invention achieves uniform image quality for every transfer regardless of a moisture content on a surface of a paper sheet when a plurality of transfer processes is to be made on a single paper. A copier ( 1 A) is provided with a optical sensor ( 20 ) which includes at least one light source, illuminates a paper sheet (P) with light, receives the light reflected from the paper sheet (P), and measures the received light intensity. Before each of a plurality of transfer processes, the copier ( 1 A) calculates a moisture content on a surface of the paper sheet (P) from the light intensity measured by the optical sensor ( 20 ), and sets a transfer condition of a transfer device ( 15 ) based on the calculated moisture content on the surface of the paper sheet (P).

Claim (Index 2):
The image forming device according to  claim 1 , further comprising a stop roller configured to temporarily stop the paper sheet before performing the transfer process on the paper sheet, wherein the measurement unit performs measurement on the paper sheet stopped by the stop roller.
