    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes a humidity sensor element, a resistor, a clock supply section, a detection section and a determination section. The detection section detects a humidity on the basis of a divided voltage value obtained by the humidity sensor element and the resistor. The determination section acquires the divided voltage value at a first timing within a period from a rising edge to a falling edge of a first clock signal and at a second timing within a period from a falling edge to a rising edge of the first clock signal, and determines, on the basis of the divided voltage values thus acquired, whether or not the humidity detected by the detection section is normal.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes a motor, a container detection sensor, and a controller. When a toner container is attached, the motor generates a driving force for rotating a toner conveying member in the toner container. The container detection sensor is arranged at a position where the container detection sensor comes into contact with an outer periphery of a cam connected to the toner conveying member when the toner container is attached. The controller distinguishes between at least three attachment states of the toner container based on a sensor signal of the container detection sensor.

    摘要: An image reading device includes a document sheet conveying portion, an imaging element, a reading processing portion, a detection processing portion, and a stop processing portion. The document sheet conveying portion sequentially conveys a plurality of document sheets placed on a document sheet placement portion. The imaging element is disposed at a document sheet conveyance path. The reading processing portion executes a reading process of reading image data from each of the document sheets placed on the document sheet placement portion. The detection processing portion detects an abnormal image from image data of a document sheet read in the reading process. The stop processing portion, when the detection processing portion has detected the abnormal image, stops the reading process and a power supply to the imaging element, and after an elapse of a predetermined wait time, resumes the power supply to the imaging element, and resumes the reading process.
