An image forming apparatus for forming an image on a photoconductor by scanning light on the photoconductor includes a printer engine having a polygon motor that can be controlled to revolve at an arbitrary rate of revolution, a deflector driven by the polygon motor to be rotated to deflect the light, and a motor controller to control the revolution of the polygon motor. The apparatus further includes a controller to control the apparatus. The apparatus is connected with a host computer, and the polygon motor is controlled to stop revolving when the apparatus is in a waiting status. When the apparatus is set to form the image with a single picture element resolution, the controller outputs to the printer engine a request to revolve the polygon motor immediately after receiving a printing instruction to form the image from the host computer and a printing request to form the image after completing image processing for forming the image.
