| 1. An image forming apparatus comprising:
a feeding roller;
a feeding motor to drive the feeding roller to move a picked-up printing medium; and
a controller to control the feeding motor so as to regulate a feeding velocity of the printing medium according to a feeding
time T12 taken to move the printing medium within a predetermined section of a printing medium feeding path,
wherein the controller drives the feeding motor at a predetermined motor driving frequency P within the predetermined section;
varies the predetermined feeding motor driving frequency P, according to the feeding time T12 taken to move the printing medium within the predetermined section, in a post section after the predetermined section; and
restores the predetermined motor driving frequency P at a reference time after beginning to vary the driving frequency of
the feeding motor.
