The developing roller 33 which absorbs the potential difference between and feeds it to the photosensitive drum (not shown), and it is friction-driven with this developing roller 33, the power is applied, adsorb | sucks the developer 35, and supplies it to the developing roller 33. The feed roller 32 is provided. In addition, an agitator 34 is provided on the inner wall of the developing device 30 to improve the fluidity of the developer 35, and the braid for thinly attaching the developer 35 to the surface of the developing roller 33. 40 is provided.

한편, 본 고안의 특징적 구성으로서 현상장치(30)의 내부에는 형상제(35)로부터 습기를 흡수하는 흡습부재(36)와, 현장제(35)로부터 습기가 소정습도로 제거된 그 내부의 습도를 감지하는 감지수단과, 감지된 습도에 대응하는 대전량의 전하를 현상제(35)에 부여하는 대전수단이 구비되어 있다. 상기 감지수단으로는 현상장치(30) 내부에 센서(50)를 설치하였으며, 상기 흡습부재(36)는 폴리 아크릴 산염계인 흡습부재재를 사용하였다.On the other hand, as a characteristic constitution of the present invention, the developing device 30 has a moisture absorbing member 36 that absorbs moisture from the shaping agent 35, and humidity therein from which the moisture is removed from the field agent 35 to a predetermined humidity. Sensing means for detecting a, and charging means for providing a charge of the charge amount to the developer 35 corresponding to the sensed humidity. As the sensing means, a sensor 50 was installed inside the developing apparatus 30, and the moisture absorbing member 36 used a moisture absorbing member material of polyacrylate.
