Disclosed is a printed circuit board comprising a contact terminal, which prevents a poor contact and reduces a manufacturing cost, and an image forming apparatus having the same. The printed circuit board comprises a circuit part for controlling and processing an operation of electronic appliance, and a large-area contact terminal formed by a group of small-area terminals for electric connection with external device. The small-area terminals can be formed in various types, respectively having regular size and shape and being distanced a predetermined interval. Accordingly, unevenness of the large-area contact terminal surface caused by soldering is prevented since a plurality of small-area terminals constitute a unit contact terminal of over a predetermined size. Therefore, quality of contact with external terminal improves. Further, manufacturing cost is reduced, and the manufacturing process becomes simple.

In color registration error correction using the printer, the positions of electrostatic latent images, corresponding to test patterns formed on a photoreceptor belt by optical scanning devices, are detected by developing the electrostatic latent images with a single color. Therefore, a structure for measuring error amounts from the test patterns is simple, and the accuracy of measurement can be improved.
