Abstract:
A cleaning device cleans a toner forming surface of a rotating image bearing member. The cleaning device includes: a cleaning member for cleaning the image forming surface, the cleaning member having a first length in a width direction which is perpendicular to a rotational direction of the image bearing member, and being capable of coming in contact with and separating from the image forming surface; and a solid lubricating member which comes in contact with the cleaning member to give a lubricity to the image forming surface through the cleaning member, the solid lubricating member having a second length in the width direction which is shorter than the first length.
