An image forming apparatus having a touchdown-development type developing apparatus, in which a toner collecting roller that collects scattered toner suspended in the vicinity of a toner holding body and a two-component developer holding body is arranged on the downstream side in a rotational direction of the two-component developer holding body from a closest position of the two-component developer holding body and the toner holding body, and between the two-component developer holding body and the housing wall, and further, bias means that applies a bias voltage for collecting the scattered toner to the toner collecting roller, and image density sensing means for sensing a density of a toner image developed on the electrostatic latent image holding body surface or a toner image on a transfer body onto which the toner image developed on the electrostatic latent image holding body surface is transferred to control the bias voltage are provided.
