ABSTRACT:
Because of using as a light source a halogen lamp which is well stabilized in terms of both the quantity of light and the spectral ratio, it is unnecessary to read shading data whenever the reading of an image is initiated. The shading data can be read with a certain margin at the end of a copy job, when power is being given to an image reader or at given time intervals for making shading correction on the basis thereof. Reading the shading data can be carried out with a certain time margin without detriment to FCOT (First Copy Output Time) and CPM (Copy/Minute); enough time is allowed for acceptance of the shading data, so that data of a plurality of lines can be read and fault values, if any, can be removed therefrom. Therefore, the influences of dust, etc., even if present on the white reference plate, can be eliminated. In addition, since it is unnecessary to accept the shading data at the beginning of a copy job, the white reference plate can be located on platen glass on the tail end side rather than on the lead edge side; the white reference plate can be read under the same illuminating conditions as in reading the original document.
