A switch is provided, and a rewritable, non-volatile memory means is provided to memorize the state of the switch and the number of times of image formation . A processing means is provided for detecting the state of the switch and initializing the image forming number information stored in the storage means when the state of the switch is different from the switch state stored in the storage means. A counter device for an image forming apparatus characterized by: The brief description of the drawing has been amended as follows. "Copying machine body" on page 13, line 5 of the specification is "

Claims

[Scope of utility model registration request]

In an image forming apparatus in which an image forming unit is provided to be detachably and replaceably attached to an apparatus main body, a reversing switch is provided that recursively maintains two states alternately in conjunction with attachment and replacement of the image forming unit, and this reversing switch A rewritable, non-volatile memory means is provided for storing the state of the image forming apparatus and the number of times of image formation, and the image forming operation is managed and the number of image forming times is written in the memory means, and the state of the reversing switch is detected. A counter for an image forming apparatus, comprising processing means for initializing image forming number information stored in the storage means when the state of the reversing switch differs from the switch state stored in the storage means. Device.
