摘要:
A belt suitable for detection of a meandering amount of the belt and detection of a reference position for one round of the belt is realized with a simple configuration. The recording device belt has a plurality of marks for belt position detection disposed in a transport direction of the belt. Each of the plurality of marks has: a first specific portion whose dimension in the transport direction differs depending on a position in an intersecting direction that intersects with the transport direction; and a second specific portion whose dimension in the transport direction is constant regardless of the position in the intersecting direction. The plurality of marks include a reference mark whose dimension in the transport direction of the second specific portion is different from that of the other marks in the plurality of marks.

An image forming apparatus includes a rotating polygon mirror, a motor, a bearing portion, a measurement processing portion, and a determination processing portion. The rotating polygon mirror causes a light beam emitted from the light source to be scanned. The motor rotates the rotating polygon mirror. The bearing portion rotatably supports a rotation shaft of the motor via a lubricant. The measurement processing portion measures a transition time that is a time required for the motor to transition from a stationary state to a driving state in which the motor rotates at a predetermined speed. The determination processing portion determines whether or not a maintenance is required, based on the transition time measured by the measurement processing portion.

An image forming apparatus includes an exposing section, a pulse generating section, a frequency storing section, an emission control section, a smoothing section, and a driving-current generating section. The pulse generating section generates a periodic pulse signal indicating light amount of light beam emitted by a light source of the exposing section. The frequency storing section stores in advance a plurality of frequencies of the pulse signal. The emission control section selects, in the rendering of each main scanning line, any one of the plurality of frequencies and instructs the pulse generating section to generate the pulse signal having the selected frequency. The smoothing section smoothes the pulse signal generated by the pulse generating section according to the instruction of the emission control section and generates analog signal. The driving-current generating section generates driving current for the light source of the exposing section on the basis of the analog signal.

A stepping motor driving device includes a table, a driving pulse control part, an interpolation number indicating part and a driving part. The table stores thinned data which is thinned from original data and designates a pulse width of a driving pulse relating to a slow-up control or a slow-down control of a stepping motor. The driving pulse control part sequentially reads the thinned data from the table at predetermined intervals, to interpolate the thinned data in accordance with a given interpolation number so as to generate interpolated data and to output the driving pulse with the pulse width designated by the thinned data or the interpolated data by sequentially using the thinned data and the interpolated date at predetermined intervals. The interpolation number indicating part indicates the interpolation number to the driving pulse control part. The driving part drives the stepping motor in accordance with the driving pulse.

Image forming apparatus includes elements as follows. Light-amount storing section stores, in the main scanning line divided into a plurality of blocks, light amounts of a light beam irradiated on the blocks. Change-data storing section stores a plurality of change data items set in the vicinity of each of block boundaries of the plurality of blocks. The plurality of change data items are used to cope with each of a plurality of events that are likely to affect the image quality in the vicinity of the block boundary. Irradiation control section selects, out of the plurality of change data items, change data for coping with an event selected out of the plurality of events and instructs Pulse generating section to generate, in the vicinity of the block boundary, pulse signal from which analog signal indicating a change in a value represented by the selected change data is obtained.

An ink jet recording apparatus is provided with a conveying unit, a drive roller controller and a discharge timing controller. The drive roller controller controls a rotation speed of a drive roller based on pulse signals output by an encoder and corresponding to an angular velocity of a driven roller and an actual outer diameter of the driven roller. The discharge timing controller controls an ink discharge timing based on signals obtained by attenuating multiple frequency components of a target frequency corresponding to a pulse number of the pulse signals output from the encoder during one turn of the driven roller in the pulse signals and an actual outer diameter of the driven roller.
