Abstract
A sheet measuring apparatus includes a first rotating member including a first peripheral surface portion that contacts a transported sheet; a second rotating member including a second peripheral surface portion that contacts the first peripheral surface portion; a first rotation amount detecting unit that detects a first rotation amount of the first rotating member; a second rotation amount detecting unit that detects a second rotation amount of the second rotating member; a sheet calculation unit that obtains a first rotating member correction value for correcting an error that is superposed on the second rotation amount due to a radius distribution of the first rotating member and that performs calculation related to the transported sheet; a radius distribution calculating unit that calculates a new radius distribution of the first rotating member; and an updating unit that updates the first rotating member correction value to a new first rotating member correction value.
