Image forming electrophotography apparatus and magnetic developing unit

Abstract

In an image forming apparatus for charging a photosensitive body, changing the light exposure amount in at least three levels at exposure to light, thereby forming an electrostatic image made up of a high-potential part, a low-potential part, and an intermediate-potential part therebetween on the photosensitive body, and normally developing and inversely developing the electrostatic image using toners different in charge polarity for forming two types of toner images on the photosensitive body, a first developer used with a first toner image developing unit has electric resistance changed within 10% in the change range of applied voltage to the developer as the difference between a surface potential of the photosensitive body and a developing bias voltage.
