Abstract: A sheet conveyor device is to be attachably and detachably mounted to an external apparatus which forms an image on a sheet. The sheet conveyor device includes a judgement section, a speed determining section, and a conveyance controller. The judgement section determines which of a plurality of model groups the external apparatus belongs to based on specification information indicating specifications of the external apparatus. The speed determining section determines a conveyance speed at which the sheet is to be conveyed based on the determined model group. The conveyance controller directs conveyance of the sheet at the determined conveyance speed.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus is capable of correcting a lateral deviation and/or a skew of a sheet. A pair of conveying rollers convey the sheet to a transfer position of an image. An image sensor reads the sheet on an upstream side of the transfer position in a sheet conveying direction. A control device senses a foreign substance on a reading surface of the image sensor as well as calculate a lateral deviation amount and/or a skew amount of the sheet based on an output signal of the image sensor.
