Abstract: A multi-pass type image forming apparatus allows driving-couplings to couple with and separate from an image-carrier and developing units simultaneously. The apparatus includes a main body, a cover to open or close the main body, an image-carrier unit including an image-carrier and first driven-coupling connected to the image-carrier, developing units including a developing roller and a second driven-coupling connected to the developing roller, first and second driving-couplings to transmit drive power to the first and second driven-couplings, a link unit to move in a first direction in linkage with opening/closing operations of the cover, and a guide unit to be rotatable about the first driving-coupling in linkage with the link unit, the guide unit being moved when rotated about the first driving-coupling so as to couple or separate the first and second driving-couplings to or from the first and second driven-couplings.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are an image forming apparatus and a control method thereof. In the image forming apparatus, an intermediate transfer member is provided with a position identification mark, to enable sensing of a position of the intermediate transfer member after a cleaning unit is completely spaced apart from the intermediate transfer member. An image formation/transfer position can be controlled in response to a sensing signal of the position identification mark, so that respective colors of developer images may be formed and transferred to the same position on the intermediate transfer member in a state in which contact between the cleaning unit and the intermediate transfer member is released. This minimizes and/or prevents color discrepancy between the respective colors of developer images.
