ABSTRACT:
In an electrophotographic recording device, a multicolor toner image is formed by images in each color superimposed on one another. In order to detect image misalignment, image-forming units form a color registration detection pattern, and sensors detect the pattern and output detection signals. A control unit detects the position of the patterns based on only portions of the detection signals corresponding to leading edges of the patterns.
