To provide a transfer device of a fixed brush type capable of realizing an excellent image at a low cost while preventing the image deterioration, the transfer unevenness or the like from occurring prior transferring.

In the case of adopting the fixed transferring electric charge applying member in a brush shape, the device is composed so as to have the brush supporting member 52 for condensing the tip of the brush 50 in contact with the rear side of a transfer material, a transferring belt and the inside face of a transferring drum, in the range narrower than the area where the transfer material P in contact with a photoreceptor 1. In such a case, the device is composed so as to locate the tip part of the brush 50 inside the area L on which the transfer material P comes into contact with the photoreceptor 1, and to make denseness on the tip part of the brush 50 higher than that of the primary brush 50.
