An optical beam scanner includes a driving unit rotating a rotary polygon mirror that deflects and scans an optical beam; a rotation position detection unit; a rotation control unit controlling the driving unit in accordance with a rotation reference signal and an output signal of the rotation position detection unit; an optical beam detection unit detecting the optical beam at a predetermined position on a scanning path so as to generate a horizontal synchronizing signal; a first timing generation unit generating a first reference timing so as to print a first surface; a second timing generation unit generating a second reference timing so as to print a second surface; a timing measurement unit measuring a counter value according to the horizontal synchronizing signal; and a phase control unit controlling a phase of the rotation reference signal in accordance with the counter value obtained by the timing measurement unit.
