An ozone exhaust system in an image forming apparatus having a multiple
number of process printing units, includes: exhaust ducts for exhausting
ozone arising in the process printing units. In the ozone exhaust system,
the exhaust ducts are mainly constituted of process printing unit's side
exhaust ducts provided respectively along multiple charger cases and a
main exhaust duct to which the process printing unit's side exhaust ducts
are connected, and the process printing unit's side exhaust ducts are
constructed so that the air current that flows into the charger cases and
the air current that flows from the process printing unit's side exhaust
ducts into the main exhaust duct are directed in the same direction.
