Abstract:
An image formation apparatus includes: an image formation unit that forms an image on continuous paper; a paper conveyance unit that conveys the paper through a conveyance path; a deviation correction unit that corrects deviation of the continuous paper by moving the paper on the conveyance path in a paper feed intersecting direction; a paper position measurement unit that measures a paper position in the paper feed intersecting direction of the paper on the conveyance path; and a control unit that controls the image formation unit and the deviation correction unit, wherein during stop of a conveyance operation, the control unit moves the paper to a predetermined position in the paper feed intersecting direction by deviation correction by the deviation correction unit, and during the conveyance operation, the control unit decides an image formation position in a main scanning direction in the image formation.
