Image forming apparatus, image forming apparatus control method, and image forming apparatus control program
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes: an image carrier; a charging roller that charges the image carrier; a power supply part that applies a charging voltage to the charging roller; a current measurement part that measures a value of a DC component of a current flowing between the image carrier and the charging roller at at least two timings having mutually different elapsed times; and a hardware processor that measures an elapsed time from a start of application of the charging voltage by the power supply part, calculates a coefficient of an approximate expression indicating a relationship between the value of the DC component of the current flowing between the image carrier and the charging roller, and the elapsed time, and performs judgment related to life of the charging roller on the basis of the coefficient and a predetermined threshold.
