Abstract
A memory error detecting device for an image forming apparatus having a memory unit, a first generating means, a second generating means, a comparison means, and a memory error warning means. The first generating means generates first information related to first image data input to the memory unit. The second generating means generates second information related to second image data output from the memory unit. The comparison means compares the first information with the second information, and generates a comparison result signal. The memory error warning means signifies an error in the memory unit when the comparison result signal indicates that the first information differs from the second information.
