An image forming apparatus includes: a stepping motor arranged in a conveying path for a paper; a driver for driving the stepping motor; a current detecting unit for detecting an actual current value; and a control unit for providing a set current value for every predetermined cycle. The control unit determines an estimated load torque value corresponding to the set current value in a previous cycle and the actual current value in a present cycle, by referring to a relationship between actual current and load torque of the stepping motor with respect to the set current value, determines a target load torque value based on the estimated load torque value, and determines, as the set current value, a current value corresponding to the target load torque value, by referring to a relationship between maximum output torque of the stepping motor and current supplied to the stepping motor.

A control device for generating a second trigger with a delay of a predetermined time from generation of a first trigger, the control device having: a counter for counting numbers from 0 to n−1 at a frequency with cycles of a first period; a control section, which operates at a frequency with cycles of a second period that is longer than the first period, for calculating a remainder of a division by adding a number of counts of the counter corresponding to the predetermined time to a count value of the counter at the time of generation of the first trigger and by dividing a result of the addition by n; and an output section for outputting the second trigger at a time when the count value of the counter becomes equal to the remainder.

A variable frequency clock output circuit, comprising: a target value register which stores a target value corresponding to an arbitrarily set target frequency; an increase/decrease value register which stores an arbitrarily set increase/decrease value; an adder-subtractor which has an input portion into which a current output value is inputted and outputs a calculation result obtained by adding/subtracting the increase/decrease value stored in the increase/decrease value register to/from the current output value inputted into the input portion based on an addition/subtraction instruction signal; a comparator which compares an output value of the adder-subtractor to the target value stored in the target value register, and outputs an addition/subtraction instruction signal to the adder-subtractor until the output value of the adder-subtractor and the target value coincide; and a clock generator which outputs a clock signal having a frequency proportional to the output value of the adder-subtractor.

A rotational shaft of a photosensitive drum is connected to a rotational shaft of a stepping motor by a coupling, so that the stepping motor directly drives the photosensitive drum. Here, &thgr; (°) indicating a step angle of the stepping motor, p (mm) indicating a distance between scanning lines on the photosensitive drum, &pgr; indicating the circular constant, and d (mm) indicating a diameter of the photosensitive drum are set so as to satisfy an equation n·&thgr;=(360·p)/(&pgr;·d) to make an optical unit scan the photosensitive drum by one scanning line every time the photosensitive drum is made to rotate n steps, n being a positive integer.

In an image forming apparatus which forms images by transferring to a transfer drum a toner image formed on the surface of the photosensitive member directly driven by a stepping motor, the relationship between the stepping angle ".theta." (.degree.) of the stepping motor and the rotational speed "N" (rpm) of the photosensitive drum is expressed by the equation .theta..ltoreq.(360.times.N)/(60.times.a.times.b). Where "a" is a natural number, optimally 10, which is less than the initial predetermined tolerance value when the harmonic content of rotational variation generated by the step period of the stepping motor is "1/a", and "b" is the target frequency (Hz) of 100.

An electronic apparatus comprising: a main body including a reception unit and a processing unit; and a power supply device switches between an operation state for supplying power from an external power source to the main body and a standby state for supplying power from a secondary battery to the reception unit without supplying power from the power source to the main body. Charging of the battery with power from the power source is performed during the operation state and is terminated when a value indicating power level of the battery reaches a threshold value Vt satisfying (discharge lower limit VL+Vs)≦Vt

An image copying device and an image copying system are arranged to read an image of a document and to acquire copyright information on each area regarding the image of the document from an IC chip embedded in the document. Then, based on the read image data and the acquired copyright information, a selection screen is displayed on a manipulation/display panel. Copyright information on each area of the image of the document is schematically represented on the selection screen. Whether or not copying is performed is selected area by area by manipulation by a user on this screen. For areas for which “copying” is selected is copied, but areas for which “nocopying” has been selected is not copied. Further, a copyright fee pertaining to the copied areas is collected. Thus, the image copying device and an image copying system enable the user to select appropriate processing according to differences in copyright information from one area to another of the image and cause images to be formed.
