Abstract

See full text

An image forming apparatus 100 includes a photosensitive drum 21 on which an electrostatic latent image is formed by being scanned with a light beam emitted from a light source 29 through a transparent member 26, a developing roller 23 that develops the electrostatic latent image formed on the photosensitive drum 21 to form an image on the photosensitive drum 21, a transfer roller 24 that transfers the image developed and formed by the developing roller 23 to a sheet S, a fixing portion 30 that heat-fixes the image transferred on the sheet S by the transfer roller 24 to the sheet S, and a condensation member 28 provided in an airflow path A from the fixing portion 30 to the transparent member 26, and condenses and collects vapor in the airflow.
