A first polygonal motor correction value and a first drum motor correction value are provided to the polygonal motor and the photosensitive drum motor so that an image formed by a printer unit has a 100% magnification on the basis of data provided from a reference pattern generating unit which generates an ideal pattern data having no magnification error. Next, a document, on which a predetermined pattern is printed, is scanned by a scanner unit, and then, a second polygonal motor correction value and a carriage motor correction value are provided to the polygonal motor and the carriage motor so that an image printed using the printer unit has a 100% magnification. In the case of forming an image by the printer unit in a state that a main scanning/feed direction of the scanned image is inverted, an image is formed using the first polygonal motor correction value, the carriage motor correction value and a second drum motor correction value calculated from the first and second polygonal motor correction values and the first drum motor correction value.
