Abstract: An intermediate transfer material which is disposed between a latent image-carrier and a recording medium and is primary-transferred thereon a toner image formed on the latent image-carrier, wherein the intermediate transfer material is formed by a polyimide resin having dispersed therein an electrically conductive agent and having a glass transition temperature of 245° C. or lower, and an image-forming apparatus using the above-described intermediate transfer material. The intermediate transfer material does not give image defects such as white spots, etc., caused by lowering of resistivity by the influence of a transferring electric field.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus whose secondary transfer member is provided with an intermediate transfer belt 6, a bias roll 9 for use in secondarily transferring an unfixed toner image on the intermediate transfer belt onto a recording medium P, and a backup roll which is located in opposition to the bias roll and used for supporting the intermediate transfer belt from the back of the intermediate transfer belt. The intermediate transfer belt is made of belt material of three-layer structure comprising a base made of plastics such as polyimide resin and an electrically-conductive agent, the combination of which has a Young's modulus of 35000 kg/cm.sup.2 or greater, an intermediate layer made of elastic material such as fluororubber, silicone rubber or the like and a surface layer made of material having low surface energy such as fluoroplastics. The thickness of each layer is as follows: the base is 50 .mu.

Abstract: A processing apparatus for magnetically transmitting data to or from a plurality of types of portable storage media, including a first media having a magnetic stripe thereon, and a second media having a magnetic transducer therein. The apparatus includes a housing, a magnetic head in the housing for interacting with the portable media for transmitting data to or from the media, a groove in the housing for receiving the portable media and longitudinally aligning the magnetic stripe of the first media with the magnetic head of the apparatus, and positioning member for selectively positioning the second media in the groove for transmission of data between the magnetic transducer and the magnetic head.
