Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a forming unit configured to form a detection patch on a recording material and a detecting unit configured to detect the detection patch on the recording material being conveyed at a first conveying speed. After the detecting unit detects the detection patch, the recording material with the detected detection patch is conveyed at a second conveying speed higher than the first conveying speed.
Claims23
An image forming apparatus comprising:
- a forming unit configured to form a detection patch on a recording material;
- and
- a detecting unit configured to detect the detection patch on the recording material being conveyed at a first conveying speed,
- wherein after the detecting unit detects the detection patch, the recording material with the detected detection patch is conveyed at a second conveying speed higher than the first conveying speed.

An image forming apparatus comprising:
- a forming unit configured to form a detection patch on a first recording material and subsequently form the detection patch on a second recording material;
- and
- a detecting unit configured to detect the detection patch on the first recording material and subsequently detect the detection patch on the second recording material,
- wherein the first recording material is conveyed at a first conveying speed and the second recording material is conveyed at a second conveying speed higher than the first conveying speed, and
- wherein detection of the detection patch on the first recording material is performed in parallel with formation of the detection patch on the second recording material.

An image forming apparatus comprising:
- a forming unit configured to form a detection patch on a first recording material and subsequently form the detection patch on a second recording material;
- and
- a detecting unit configured to detect the detection patch on the first recording material and subsequently detect the detection patch on the second recording material,
- wherein the first recording material is conveyed at a first conveying speed and the second recording material is conveyed at a second conveying speed higher than the first conveying speed, and
- wherein after the detection patch on the preceding first recording material is detected by the detecting unit, conveyance of the first recording material is stopped, and
- wherein, after the detection patch is formed by the forming unit on the second recording material, the first recording material is conveyed again at a conveying speed higher than the first conveying speed.
