This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18740910 titled 'IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS



Original Abstract Submitted

A plurality of line sensors are disposed along a width direction intersecting a sheet conveying direction with respective positions in the width direction partially overlapping with each other, and configured to read images of a plurality of partial areas from the sheet, each of the partial areas including a non-overlapping area which does not overlap with an adjacent area and an overlapping area which overlaps with an adjacent area, each of which is a part of a sheet passing area in the width direction. An image judgment portion judges whether or not data of each of a plurality of read images obtained by the plurality of line sensors satisfies a tolerance condition based on a corresponding reference image data item. An error processing portion executes predetermined error processing when it is judged that the data of any of the plurality of read images does not satisfy the tolerance condition.
