An image-forming apparatus including: an image holding member; a charging
device that charges the image holding member; an electrostatic latent
image-forming device that exposes a surface of the charged image holding
member to light to form an electrostatic latent image; a developing
device that develops the electrostatic latent image formed on the image
holding member with toner into a toner image; an intermediate transfer
body to which the toner image formed on the image holding member is
transferred; a primary transfer device that transfers the toner image
formed on the image holding member onto the intermediate transfer body;
and a secondary transfer device that transfers the toner image
transferred on the intermediate transfer body onto a recording medium,
the intermediate transfer body including a resin layer containing
polyaniline particles, and the 50 percentile particle diameter (number
basis) of the toner being at least twice as large as the 50 percentile
particle diameter (number basis) of the polyaniline particles.
