Abstract: Depending on an arbitrarily set magnification of an image forming apparatus, either pulses of a line synchronization signal or pulses of a motor driving signal are selected. Each of the pulses of the line synchronization signal being generated when the laser beam scans the photosensitive drum in a main scan direction and the pulses of the motor driving signal are used for driving a scanner motor provided in an original reading unit at different speeds so as to enable the original to be read at different speeds so as to enable the magnification to be set to different values. The pulses of the signal thus selected are counted and a thus-obtained count value is output. Based on the count value, a time period between a time a reference mark provided on an intermediate transfer belt is detected and a time an electrostatic latent image is written on a photosensitive drum, when the electrostatic latent image is formed using image data output by the original reading unit directly and the electrostatic latent image is formed using image data stored and read out from a memory.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus of the present invention continuously conveys a first and a second document set on an ADF (Automatic Document Feeder) and having a reference image size to a document reading unit. When the document reading unit reads the first and second documents, image data read out of the second document are written to a delay memory. After the first document has been read, the image data of the second document are read out of the delay memory on the elapse of a period of time corresponding to a difference between an interval between consecutive papers and an interval between the above documents fed by the ADF. The apparatus can therefore efficiently form the images of two documents at the same time without resorting to a large capacity memory. Alternatively, when the document reading unit starts reading the first document after the second document, the image data of the first document may be delayed by the difference between the two intervals. This allows the two documents to be stored at the interval between the consecutive papers and thereby insures high quality images free from defective registration.

Abstract: An image reading apparatus applicable to, for example, an electronic copier or a facsimile transceiver for reading an image by use of CCDs or similar reading elements. A circuit included in the apparatus and not having a time constant is driven at the same time as the start of an image reading operation, while a circuit having a time constant is driven earlier by taking account of the time constant. The apparatus, therefore, reduces electromagnetic interference and saves power while eliminating defective image signals.
