    摘要: A fixing device fixes a toner image on a recording medium transported to a fixing nip by applying pressure and heat to the recording medium. The fixing device includes an endless belt formed into a loop with both ends bonded together, the belt accommodating a heat source inside thereof, a pressing roller rotating in contact with the endless belt forming the fixing nip between the endless belt and the pressing roller, and a fixed member provided inside a loop of the endless belt to press the endless belt against a pressing roller. A reinforcing member is bonded to the fixed member inside the loop of the endless belt to reinforce the fixed member. A reflector is provided to reflect light emitted from the heat source toward the inner circumferential surface of the endless belt. The reflector is held on the reinforcing member by either plastically or elastically deforming by itself.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus comprises a printing head that ejects one or more ink drops onto a medium. The print head is mounted on a carriage and is supplied with ink via a supply tube. A sheet like member keeps the supply tube apart from the medium when the printing head ejects ink drop onto the medium.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes a carriage carrying a recording head configured to discharge a droplet. A landing position error detecting pattern is formed on a pattern forming member. Based on a result of reading the landing position error detecting pattern, a landing position error of the droplet discharged by the recording head is corrected. Either a first pattern or a second pattern is selected as the landing position error detecting pattern, depending on a surface condition of the pattern forming member. The first pattern produces a relatively small amount of specular reflection compared with diffused reflection, while the second pattern produces a relatively large amount of specular reflection compared with diffused reflection, upon irradiation with light.

    摘要: A disclosed image forming apparatus includes a carriage having a head for jetting droplets; a pattern forming unit configured to form, on a belt, a pattern used for detecting displacement of landing positions of the droplets; a reading unit configured to scan the belt before the pattern formation to output a first result, and scan the pattern to output a second result; a correcting unit configured to correct the displacement based on the second result; a frequency analyzing unit configured to calculate frequencies of the belt and amplitudes of respective frequency components based on the first result; and a peak frequency calculating unit configured to calculate peak frequencies of the belt based on the frequencies of the belt and the amplitudes of the frequency components, the peak frequencies being frequency components whose amplitude exceeds a predetermined level. The pattern is formed at a frequency different from the peak frequencies.
