Summary:An image formation apparatus includes: a photoconductor that has a photoconductive layer having a surface on which an electrostatic latent image is formed; a charging roll to which a bias with an AC component superposed on a DC component is applied for charging the photoconductor at a predetermined potential; a film thickness detector that detects a film thickness of the photoconductive layer of the photoconductor without applying the AC component; an environment measuring section that measures at least one of ambient temperature and humidity; an AC component setting section that sets a value of the AC component of the bias based on detection results of the film thickness detector and the environment measuring section; and a charging controller that controls at least one of voltage and current applied to the charging roll based on the value of the AC component set by the AC component setting section.
