Abstract
An image reading apparatus includes: an illumination unit that is disposed so as to be moved relative to a recording medium and illuminates the recording medium with light beams of plural colors that are circulated in predetermined order; a reading unit that reads an image recorded on the recording medium by receiving reflection light that is produced as a result of the illumination unit's illuminating the recording medium during the moving relative to the recording medium; and a control unit that controls the illumination unit so that a difference between a first illumination interval and a second illumination interval is determined based on a reading resolution of the reading unit.
