Abstract
In the present invention, data with regard to passing time of respective sides of a polygon mirror when a polygon motor is in a predetermined rotating condition is stored in a memory at the respective addresses, the memory is accessed in response to the rotation of the polygon mirror and the data on the side (reflection face) performing the scan on a photo sensitive drum are successively generated while corelating with the scan, a difference between a target rotating amount under a proper standard rotation of a particular side and an actual rotating amount of the particular side is obtained time to time for respective sides of the polygon mirror, which depends on the processing accuracy of the respective sides, thereby even the polygon motor having a poor processing accuracy can be controlled at the standard rotation so that the scanning speed by the rotation is brought about to a target value like a polygon motor having a high processing accuracy.
