<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent a stripe by randomly changing a clock signal inputted to an invertor and preventing fixation of a pixel position affected by noise. Ž<P>SOLUTION: An image reader (scanner 1) has: a lamp for irradiating a document with light; the invertor that is connected to the lamp and changes voltage applied to the electrode of the lamp, and lights the lamp; an image sensor allowing the incidence of the light applied to the document and reading the document in units of lines; a synchronization signal generation section for generating a synchronization signal for synchronization with each line period of the image sensor; and a clock signal generation section for generating a clock signal to randomly change the clock frequency of the clock signal. The clock signal is inputted to the invertor to change voltage applied to the electrode of the lamp based on the clock signal. Ž<P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT Ž
