Abstract: An inkjet image forming apparatus includes: an image former that forms an image on a transfer body by discharging an ink droplet from an inkjet head; and a hardware processor that detects a landing state of the ink droplet that has been discharged and landed on the transfer body and changes an image forming condition when the image is formed so that a detected landing state approaches a target landing state.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus conveys a recording medium along a predetermined conveyance path and ejects ink onto a front surface of the recording medium to form an image when the recording medium passes through a predetermined drawing position, and includes: a first heater that is provided in the conveyance path on an upstream side of the drawing position and that heats the recording medium; and a control part that controls the first heater, wherein the first heater includes a front surface heater that heats a front surface side of the recording medium and a back surface heater that heats a back surface side of the recording medium, and the control part individually controls a temperature of the front surface heater and a temperature of the back surface heater when the recording medium has a multilayer structure.

Abstract: Discloses is a liquid supply apparatus that supplies liquid to a liquid ejection apparatus, including: a liquid tank that stores the liquid; and a conveyer that loads a refill container to a refill position of the liquid tank to replenish the liquid.

Abstract: An ink jet recording apparatus contains a conveyer which conveys a recording medium, the conveyer having conveyance members on which the recording medium is mounted; a recorder which jets ink onto the recording medium being conveyed; and a fixer which fixes the ink landed on the recording medium. The ink is curable by a predetermined energy ray. The fixer irradiates the ink on the recording medium with the predetermined energy ray. The conveyer passes the recording medium for conveyance between the conveyance members and moves the recording medium in respective planes by movement of the conveyance members.

Abstract: An inkjet recording apparatus includes: a conveyor having an endless conveying belt that conveys a recording medium; an image former that forms an image on the recording medium conveyed by the conveying belt; a correction mark formed on the conveying belt; a line sensor disposed downstream of the image former in a conveying direction of the recording medium, the line sensor having a linear detection surface; and a hardware processor that controls the conveying belt, the image former, and the line sensor, wherein the hardware processor calculates an inclination angle of the detection surface of the line sensor with respect to a width direction orthogonal to the conveying direction, based on image data of the correction mark read by the line sensor, and corrects image data of the line sensor based on the inclination angle.

Abstract: An inkjet recording apparatus includes a belt, an image forming unit, a transfer unit, a heating unit, and a hardware processor. The belt is laid across at least two rollers so as to move around the rollers. The image forming unit ejects an ink to an image forming region of the belt, thereby forming a primary image. The image forming region is arranged between the rollers. The transfer unit transfers the primary image formed in the image forming region by the image forming unit to a recording medium. The heating unit heats the image forming region. The hardware processor controls a temperature of the image forming region by causing the heating unit to heat the image forming region.

Abstract: A recording medium conveyance device of an inkjet recording device includes a belt-form member, two conveyance rollers, a driver, a supporting board, a suction unit, and a guide roller. The recording medium is placed on the outer circumferential surface of the belt-form member. The belt-form member is pulled over the two conveyance rollers which cause the belt-form member to circulate. The driver causes at least one of the two conveyance rollers to rotate. The supporting board supports the inner circumferential surface of the belt-form member on a plane. The suction unit pulls the recording medium placed on the belt-form member to the outer circumferential surface of the belt-form member. The guide roller is arranged between at least one of the two conveyance rollers and the supporting board and supports the inner circumferential surface of the belt-form member.

Abstract: There is described a film conveying apparatus drawably mounted onto an image-forming apparatus. The apparatus includes a film stacking section to stack photosensitive films on it, a conveying device being movable between a film conveying position and a film supplying position to convey the photosensitive films one by one from uppermost one, a first shading member that encloses both the film stacking section and the conveying device and has a conveyance opening from which the photosensitive film is conveyed out by the conveying device so as to maintain a light-shading state for both the film stacking section and the conveying device when the conveying device parks at the film conveying position; a second shading member, being movable relative to the first shading member, to open and close the conveyance opening; and a shading-member moving device to move the second shading member so as to open and close the conveyance opening.
