Abstract:
An image formation apparatus having a lubricant application apparatus applying lubricant to an image carrier in an image former, in which the lubricant application apparatus includes: a lubricant stick; an application member disposed on an upstream side in an advancing direction of the image carrier surface with respect to a cleaning apparatus pressing lubricant supplied to the image carrier to form a film, supplying lubricant scraped off from the lubricant stick to the image carrier, and removing residual toner adhering to the image carrier; and a recovery member in contact with the application member, and recovering toner adhering to the application member, and the image formation apparatus includes a hardware processor controlling a lubricant amount on the image carrier by changing each of removability of residual toner on the image carrier by the application member, and recoverability of residual toner on the application member by the recovery member.

Claim (Index 3):
The image formation apparatus according to  claim 2 , wherein\n the hardware processor executes any of a first mode, a second mode, and a third mode in each of which the first applied voltage value and the second applied voltage value are set, a difference between the first applied voltage value and the second applied voltage value in the first mode is greater than a difference between the first applied voltage value and the second applied voltage value in the second mode, and the first applied voltage value in the third mode is smaller than the first applied voltage values in the first mode and the second mode.
