Abstract

See full text

An image forming apparatus includes photosensitive drums, electrostatic latent image forming units, developing sleeves, patch detection sensors which detect image densities of the toner images formed by the electrostatic latent image forming units, and toner replenishment units which replenish the developing sleeves with the toner based on the detection results of the patch detection sensors. Further, controllers are provided to control the rotation speeds of the developing sleeves at the time of forming the reference toner image to be higher than the rotation speeds of the developing sleeves at the time of forming a normal image.
