1. An image forming apparatus comprising an adjusting mechanism that adjusts an interval between a write head writing an optical image on a photoreceptor and the photoreceptor to a reference interval, the adjusting mechanism including a regulating member that integrally moves along with the write head in the direction of the photoreceptor to regulate the interval between the write head and the photoreceptor;

  • a moving mechanism that integrally moves the regulating member along with the write head to bring the regulating member into contact with the photoreceptor; and

    a reverse-moving mechanism that integrally moves the regulating member along with the write head in the direction opposite to the photoreceptor by a predetermined distance after the regulating member comes into contact with the photoreceptor to set the interval between the write head and the photoreceptor to the reference interval.
