ABSTRACT:
An image forming apparatus includes an exposure unit forming a latent image using a light from a light source, a developing unit forming a toner image by visualizing the latent image using a toner, a detector outputting a detection signal by optically detecting an amount of toner of the toner image, a memory storing an optimum value of the detection signal output from the detector with respect to a light emission time of the light source, with respect to a plurality of light emission times of the light source to thereby store a plurality optimum values, and a control unit controlling the light emission time of the light source by calculating a light emission time corresponding to a value of the detection signal output from the detector based on the plurality of light emission times stored in the memory.
