Abstract
The device comprises: a light emission control unit forming an latent image on a photoconductor; a correction value calculation unit calculating a correction pattern for correcting a transfer position where a developer image of the latent image transfers to a conveying member; and an angle adjustment processing unit that determines an angle of an oblique line pattern included in the correction pattern on the basis of a detection signal of an angle adjustment pattern including a plurality of continuous oblique line patterns, wherein the light emission control unit controls a light to emit so that a plurality of oblique line patterns having different inclinations relative to a conveying direction of the conveying member are continuously formed to draw the angle adjustment pattern, and controls the light to emit so that an oblique line pattern having the determined angle is formed in the correction pattern to draw the correction pattern.
