<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming apparatus etc. that can solve a problem in the case of starting/stopping both a first carrier roller and a second carrier roller while holding paper between both the carrier rollers in the image forming apparatus equipped with the first carrier roller provided in a paper conveying path, driven by a first motor and started and stopped by a clutch, and the second carrier roller provided in the paper conveying path and started and stopped by a second motor without the clutch. <P>SOLUTION: The image forming apparatus includes a control means 1 for controlling the start/stop of the first carrier roller 14 by controlling the duty ratio of a pulse width modulation signal to the clutch 15, and variably setting the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal so that the output side speed of the clutch matches the rotating speed of the second motor 24A. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
