Abstract

An image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member, a recording material bearing member for bearing and conveying a recording material to a transfer position, and a transfer charge member for transferring an image from the image bearing member onto the recording material born on the recording material bearing member. The transfer charge member has a plate-shaped conductive substrate and is contacted with a surface of the recording material bearing member opposite to a surface for bearing the recording material at the transfer position.
