Abstract
A detection device includes a transport passage along which a medium is transported and a detection unit that detects a leading edge portion and a trailing edge portion of the medium in the transport passage while transportation of the medium is stopped and while the medium is pulled in a pulling direction along the transport passage.
Claims30
A detection device comprising:
- a transport passage along which a medium is transported;
- and
- a detection unit that detects a leading edge portion and a trailing edge portion of the medium in the transport passage while transportation of the medium is stopped and while the medium is pulled in a pulling direction along the transport passage.
An image forming apparatus comprising:
- an image forming unit that forms an image on a medium;
- a heating unit that heats the medium on which the image has been formed;
- a transport passage along which the medium that has been heated is transported;
- and
- a detection unit that detects a leading edge portion and a trailing edge portion of the medium in the transport passage while transportation of the medium is stopped and while the medium is pulled in a pulling direction along the transport passage,
- wherein the detection unit detects the leading edge portion and the trailing edge portion after the medium is heated.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process comprising:
- detecting a leading edge portion and a trailing edge portion of a medium in a transport passage, along which the medium is transported, while transportation of the medium is stopped and while the medium is pulled in a pulling direction along the transport passage.
A detection device comprising:
- a transport passage along which a medium is transported;
- a detection unit that detects a leading edge portion and a trailing edge portion of the medium in the transport passage while transportation of the medium is stopped and while the medium is pulled in a pulling direction along the transport passage;
- an upstream transport unit that transports the medium along the transport passage in a transporting direction and stops the transportation of the medium;
- and
- a downstream transport unit that transports the medium along the transport passage in the transporting direction and stops the transportation of the medium, the downstream transport unit being disposed downstream of the upstream transport unit in the transporting direction,
- wherein the upstream transport unit and the downstream transport unit pull the medium in the pulling direction.
A detection device comprising:
- a transport passage along which a medium is transported;
- a transport unit that transports the medium along the transport passage in a transporting direction;
- and
- a detection unit that detects a leading edge portion and a trailing edge portion of the medium in the transport passage after the medium is pulled in a direction along the transport passage in a state in which the transport unit stops transporting the medium.
