==IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18485896 titled 'IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

==Simplified Explanation==

An image forming apparatus is described in this patent application. It consists of a photosensitive member and a scanning unit, which includes a light source, a rotatable polygonal mirror, and a sensor. The apparatus has two modes of operation, and it includes a surface identifying portion and a correction data storing portion.

* The image forming apparatus has a photosensitive member and a scanning unit with a light source, a rotatable polygonal mirror, and a sensor.
* It can operate in two modes, allowing for different types of operations.
* The apparatus includes a surface identifying portion and a correction data storing portion.
* The correction data storing portion is used to store preloaded correction data.
* The correction data includes first correction data for a first rotational speed and second correction data for a second rotational speed.
* The apparatus corrects positional deviation in the main scan direction of laser light based on the first or second correction data.

Potential applications of this technology:

* This image forming apparatus can be used in various printing and copying machines.
* It can be utilized in laser printers, photocopiers, and multifunction devices.
* The technology can be applied in industries that require high-quality image reproduction.

Problems solved by this technology:

* The apparatus corrects positional deviation in the main scan direction of laser light, ensuring accurate image formation.
* It eliminates the need for manual adjustments and reduces the chances of misalignment.
* The correction data storing portion allows for efficient and precise correction of positional deviation.

Benefits of this technology:

* The image forming apparatus improves the quality and accuracy of printed or copied images.
* It reduces the need for manual adjustments, saving time and effort.
* The correction data storing portion enables quick and automatic correction of positional deviation.
* The technology enhances the overall performance and reliability of image forming devices.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

An image forming apparatus includes a photosensitive member and a scanning unit including a light source, a rotatable polygonal mirror, and a sensor. The image forming apparatus includes setting of an operation in a first mode and setting of an operation in a second mode. The image forming apparatus further comprises, a surface identifying portion and a correction data storing portion configured to prestore correction data including first correction data for a first rotational speed and second correction data for a second rotational speed. Positional deviation in a main scan direction of laser light is corrected on the basis of the first correction data or the second correction data.
