An image forming device includes a development section provided with a
developer carrier adapted to perform development using a liquid developer
including a carrier liquid and toner particles, an image carrier adapted
to carry an image developed by the development section, an cleaning
roller of the image carrier having contact with the image carrier, an
cleaning blade of the cleaning roller of the image carrier having contact
with the cleaning roller of the image carrier at one of a position on an
imaginary line of an intersection between an imaginary plane passing
through a center of a rotational axis of the cleaning roller of the image
carrier and perpendicular to an imaginary vertical plane and a surface of
the cleaning roller of the image carrier and a position lower than the
imaginary line in a vertical direction, and an image carrier recovery
reservoir adapted to store the liquid developer recovered by the cleaning
blade of the cleaning roller of the image carrier.
