Abstract

See full text

An information forming apparatus includes an execution unit configured to execute a setting mode which sets a voltage to be applied to the transfer member during an image formation operation and a correction mode which corrects the voltage set by the setting mode and a storage unit configured to store in advance a correction current difference based on the environment that is a difference between a current when a predetermined voltage is applied to the transfer member during the first period and a current when a predetermined voltage is applied to the transfer member during the second period. The execution unit corrects the voltage set by the setting mode in accordance with the correction current difference based on a detection result from the first detection member and a detection result from the second detection member in a case that the correction mode is executed during the first period.
