ABSTRACT:
An electrophotographic copying apparatus including by a blank lamp lighting control for lighting only predetermined ones of emitters forming a blank lamp during the operation of image forming apparatus in a check mode. If copying is carried out in the check mode, some stripes are drawn on copied images in parallel with the direction of movement of a photoreceptor by lighting of a predetermined number of the emitters. Further, the aforementioned blank lamp is constructed to light all the emitters simultaneously for a short time, so that stripes are drawn on the copied images perpendicular to the direction of movement of the photoreceptor. Depending on the parallelism of the stripes with the sides of a copying paper, it can be determined whether the distortion in the copied images is caused by the optical system or by the copying paper conveying mechanism.
