Image formation apparatus, and a method of stopping the working of the image formation apparatus after completion of a job

摘要

After an image forming operation is finished, a motor that drives a belt is stopped after a predetermined time period passes since a sensor detects the only one mark provided on the belt. The predetermined time period is different for first, second and third job. This is repeated for the jobs thereafter. One job is a series of processing from the start of the motor to the stop of the motor. Thus, the belt stops at three different position for each consecutive three jobs.
