Abstract
A pixel distance corrector configured to correct a pixel distance in the main scanning direction so that latent images corresponding to each pixel of image data are formed on the surface of the photosensitive member at substantially equal intervals in the main scanning direction. A controller configured to control a light source to emit light with a first light emission luminance with respect to an image part of the photosensitive member, and a second light emission luminance which is lower than the first light emission luminance, with respect to a non-image part of the photosensitive member. The controller is configured to correct light emission luminance so that the second light emission luminance decreases as the scanning speed decreases.
