    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a document detecting apparatus includes a light-emitting element, a photoelectric conversion element, a light-emission controller and a detection processor. The light-emitting element projects light onto a detection position of a document. The light-emitting element is not used for reading an image of the document. The photoelectric conversion element converts light projected onto the detection position into an electric signal and outputs the electric signal. The light-emission controller changes the light quantity of the light emitted by the light-emitting element during a predetermined interval. The detection processor detects the presence or absence of the document at the detection position of the document based on whether a value of the output electric signal during the predetermined interval changes in correspondence to the change of the light quantity caused by the light-emission controller.

    Abstract: A multicolor image forming apparatus is provided which is capable of suppressing rotational vibrations caused by a rotary unit thereby to carry out the formation of images of excellent quality even if the amount of remaining toner in the rotary unit changes. In the multicolor image forming apparatus (10), accelerations, uniform speeds and decelerations, which do not cause residual vibration of the rotary unit due to overshooting when the rotary unit (11) is changed from its acceleration rotation to its uniform rotation or vice versa, are stored in an acceleration and acceleration storage section (16) in correspondence to the amounts of toners held by the developing units. A rotary unit rotation control section (17) detects the amounts of remaining toners of the developing units through a toner amount detection section at each timing when the rotary unit is driven to rotate for development, reads out an acceleration, a uniform speed and a deceleration corresponding to the detected amounts of remaining toners from the acceleration and deceleration storage section, and controls the rotational movement of the rotary unit according to the result thus read out. Accordingly, the rotary unit does not generate residual vibration upon switching of its rotation.
