Original Abstract Submitted

an image forming apparatus includes a developing device including a developing roller, a supply roller, and a conductive roller. during image formation, a bias is applied to each of the supplying roller, the developing roller, and the conductive roller in a state in which each of the supplying roller, the developing roller, and the conductive roller is rotationally driven. during the image formation, a polarity of a first potential obtained by subtracting a dc potential of the developing roller from a dc potential of the supplying roller is the same as a normal charge polarity of the toner, and a polarity of a second potential obtained by subtracting the dc potential of the developing roller from a dc potential of the conductive roller is the same as the normal charge polarity of the toner.
