Abstract
An image forming apparatus including a controller configured to switch between a first speed printing where a polygon mirror rotates at a first speed and laser light is at a first power and a second speed printing where the polygon mirror rotates at a second speed slower than the first speed and laser light is at a second power lower than the first power. The polygon mirror rotates at the first speed and laser light is at the first power when a first test pattern is formed. The polygon mirror rotates at the first speed and laser light is at the second power when a second test pattern is formed. The first speed printing is executed based on a detection result of the first test pattern. The second speed printing is executed based on a detection result of the second test pattern.
