According to one embodiment, an image forming apparatus includes an image carrier, a image forming unit, a measurement unit and a controller. The image carrier includes a central region on which a target image as an object of an image forming is formed and a peripheral region placed outward of the central region. The image forming unit forms a reference image on the peripheral region and the central region, before the image forming is started. Also, the image forming unit forms the target image on the central region based on a preset condition and a third reference image on the peripheral region, during the image forming. The measurement unit measures a physical quantity for the reference images.

An image forming apparatus is disclosed that is able to form a full color image with high precision by correcting the adhesion quantity of an image visualizing agent and a position shift of a visible image while continuing to perform a printing process. The image forming apparatus includes an intermediate transfer unit; plural photoconductors; plural charging units; plural exposure units; plural developing units; plural first transferring units; and plural second transferring units. The intermediate transfer unit has a correction pattern image formed in a region outside of a predetermined maximum document region of the intermediate transfer unit in a direction perpendicular to the moving direction. A detector is provided in the intermediate transfer unit for detecting the correction pattern image. A correction controller is provided for correcting, based on detection results of the detector, setting values of one or more of the charging units, the exposure units, and the developing units when a region corresponding to an interval between the visible images passes a position beneath one of the one or more units.

A transmission demanding command of demanding the transmission of a response signal for confirming a connection of video interface cables is transmitted to a printer engine section from a printer controller section via a command interface. According to the received transmission demanding command of demanding the transmission of the response signal for confirming the connection of video interface cables, the printer engine section transmits a response signal to the printer controller section via the video interface. The printer controller section compares the response signal with a previously expected signal and detects an erroneous video interface cable connection between the printer controller section and the printer engine section.
