Abstract:
A sheet conveying device, which is included in an image forming apparatus, includes a pair of rollers configured to convey a sheet in a sheet conveyance passage, a detector configured to optically detect an attitude of the sheet, one of a rotation device to rotate the pair of rollers in a direction parallel to a plane of the sheet and a moving device to move the pair of rollers in a width direction, and a controller configured to correct the attitude of the pair of rollers at a time interval, based on a detection result obtained by the detector. The controller performs the correcting operation by setting, according to reflectance of the sheet, at least one of a light emission time of the detector, the time interval of the correcting operation, light emission intensity of the detector and a conveying speed of the sheet.

Claim (Index 3):
The sheet conveying device according to  claim 2 ,\n wherein the controller is configured to:\n drive the rotation device to rotate the pair of rollers to the angular home position while holding the sheet; and \n repeat the correcting operation s a recorrecting operation.
