摘要:
An image forming apparatus which can control to turn on/off a light emitting element depending on a sheet state on a manual sheet tray is provided. The image forming apparatus includes the manual feed tray on which the sheet is placed. The image forming apparatus is configured to be switchable between normal power mode and power saving mode. In the normal power mode, normal power is supplied. In the power saving mode, less power is consumed as compared to the power consumed in the normal power mode. The image forming apparatus includes a manual sheet feeding sensor which detects presence/absence of the sheet on the manual feed tray. The image forming apparatus includes a sheet length sensor S and a sheet length sensor L which include the light emitting element and a light receiving element to detect approximate sheet length of sheet placed on the manual feed tray in a conveying direction.

An image forming apparatus includes a developing unit configured to develop an electrostatic latent image, a mounting detection unit configured to detect that a container T is mounted on a mounting unit, a driving unit configured to rotate the container T, a rotation detection unit configured to detect rotation information about the container T, and a controller configured to control the driving unit based on the rotation information. If the container T is detected to be mounted on the mounting unit, control of the driving unit is not carried out based on the rotation information until replenishment information satisfies a predetermined condition.

An image forming apparatus including a replaceable container having toner stored therein includes: an image forming unit including an accumulating unit for accumulating developer containing toner and configured to form an image by using the developer in the accumulating unit; a measurement unit configured to measure a toner density in the accumulating unit; a portion to which the container is attached; a supplementing unit configured to supplement the toner from the attached container to the accumulating unit; and a controller configured to control the supplementing unit based on first information corresponding to a difference between the toner density and a target toner density and second information corresponding to an accumulated value obtained by accumulating differences, wherein the second information does not change in a period from replacement of the container by another container until a predetermined number of times of supplement is performed.

An image forming apparatus detecting container's dismounting. A drive unit rotates the container for replenishing toner to a development unit. An output unit outputs a first signal while a predetermined portion of the container is detected, and outputs a second signal while the predetermined portion is not detected. A decision unit decides a count of changes from the second signal to the first signal based on a toner replenishing amount. A detection unit detects dismounting of the container in a case where the first signal is changed to the second signal during not rotating. The controller stops the rotation in a case where the count of changes reaches the count decided, controls the drive unit to output the first signal in a case where containers should be exchanged, and does not control the drive unit to output the first signal in a case where containers should not be exchanged.

An image forming unit includes a first receptor, a light source, a photosensitive member, a rotational polygon mirror, a light receiving unit, an identifier configured to identify a reflection face, and a generator. An information processing apparatus includes a second receptor, a first detector, a second detector, a determiner, a corrector configured to correct image data, and an output unit configured to output corrected image data to the image forming unit. When the first change is newly detected in a predetermined period, the determiner determines, based on a time period from the second timing at which the first change is newly detected to a timing at which the second change is detected and a time period from the first timing to a timing at which the second change is lastly detected before the second timing, whether the first change is a change corresponding to the identified reflection face.

A display control method for an image forming apparatus includes detecting that a document is placed on a document reading unit, determining, when it is detected that the document is placed on the document reading unit, whether the size of the document is a predetermined size, displaying a first function screen on a display when a first function capable of performing one of a plurality of functions accompanying a reading operation for a document placed on the document reading unit is performed, and displaying a second function screen to which a screen is switched from the first function screen and that is displayed when a second function created by modifying the first function based on a specific setting is performed, in a case where, while the first function screen is displayed, it is determined that the size of the detected document is not the predetermined size.
摘要:
A sheet feeding apparatus includes a stacking member, an optical sensor, a detected member, and a control unit. As an amount of sheets stacked on the stacking member decreases, the detected member moves from a first position in which optical sensor light is not interrupted, then once interrupts the light, and then moves to a second position in which the light is not interrupted. Information regarding an amount of sheets transmitted by the control unit, when stored information is about the detected member in the second position, is information notifying that an amount of sheets stacked on the stacking member is less than that of information regarding an amount of sheets stacked on the stacking member transmitted by the control unit when stored information is about the detected member is in the first position.

An image forming apparatus including: a reading device; an operating portion; a light source; a rotary polygon mirror; a motor configured to rotate the rotary polygon mirror; and a motor control portion configured to start the motor to control the motor at a first rotation speed in response to a fact that a predetermined action is performed on one of the operating portion and the reading device in a stopped state of the rotary polygon mirror, and then to control the motor at a second rotation speed higher than the first rotation speed in response to an instruction to start image formation from the operating portion, the motor control portion being configured to control the motor at the second rotation speed, without controlling the motor at the first rotation speed, in response to a fact that the receiving portion receives image data before the motor reaches the first rotation speed.
