Abstract (en)

An image forming apparatus (100, 200, 300) includes a transfer unit (1), a fixing unit (3), and a reverse voltage unit (5). The transfer unit transfers toner corresponding to a print target to a medium. The fixing unit fixes the toner transferred to the medium. In a case in which a high-resistance medium is conveyed as the medium, the reverse voltage unit applies a reverse voltage of an applied voltage having been applied to the transfer unit. The reverse voltage unit applies the reverse voltage to the high-resistance medium subsequent to fixing of the toner. The reverse voltage corresponds to a type of the high-resistance medium.
