<p>Image forming apparatus and optical scanning apparatus each includes a light source, a deflector, an fθ lens, and first and second light-beam detectors. The light source outputs light beams, and is turned on and is controlled in accordance with image data. The deflector deflects the output light beams in a main-scanning direction. The fθ lens corrects the deflected light beams from constant-angular-velocity scanning to constant-velocity scanning. The first and second light-beam detectir detect the deflected light beams at two spots along the main-scanning direction. The first light-beam detector is located at a scanning-start side, and the second light-beam detector is located at a scanning-end side. The light beam that is incident on the first light-beam detector is not transmitted through the fθ lens, and the light beam that is incident on the second light-beam detector is transmitted through the fθ lens.
