PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electrophotographic apparatus equipped with a photoreceptor and an intermediate transfer medium capable of realizing excellent life characteristics and excellent image quality when transferring a developer image while applying a shear stress. In the configuration of the present invention, the non-transfer surface of the intermediate transfer medium 106 and the non-image forming surface of the photoconductor 101 are transferred during transfer by matching the speed ratio and the circumference ratio of the intermediate transfer medium 106 and the photoconductor 101. To prevent the image from being disturbed by a discontinuous region of the photosensitive member 101 or the intermediate transfer medium 106. [Selection] Figure 6 |
