Abstract
Disclosed a multicolor image forming apparatus that facilitates correction operations to correct skews of a plurality of images. Turing a dial of an adjusting apparatus tilts a cylindrical mirror and thereby changes an irradiation position of a light beam to be irradiated onto a photoreceptor. Since the rotation of the dial and the movement of the cylindrical mirror correspond, an operator can know the state of the cylindrical mirror by visually checking a mark of the dial and a scale plate. When a color skew of images occurs, the operator can perform easily adjustment operations by the adjusting apparatus while checking a color skew amount and the state of a corresponding cylindrical mirror by the mark and the scale plate.
