摘要:
A positioning apparatus for positioning a reciprocally movable member, such as a guide member for a sheet of recording paper, between a reference position and a predetermined position. The apparatus includes a detector for detecting that the movable member is in the proximity of the reference position, and a counter for counting the amount by which the movable member is shifted while the detector is detecting that the movable member is in the proximity of the reference position. A controller stores the value counted by the counter, and controls drive of the movable member when the movable member is being returned to the reference position based on the count in the counter and the stored count value. A second counter may be provided to count the amount by which the movable member is shifted from the reference position to the predetermined position.

A temperature control device for controlling a surface temperature of a member to be heated at a predetermined temperature includes a detector for detecting the surface temperature, and a control unit for controlling current supply for a heating source for heating the member to be heated so that a result of detection by the detector is maintained at a predetermined value. The control unit controls a time of current supply for the heating source during a constant temperature control according to data relating to peak temperatures of the surface temperature during the constant temperature control.
