When the scanning start signal is output,
the reading unit moves forward and back-
ward from the home position to read the
shading sheet and reconfirm the home po-
sition. Then it moves at a speed appropriate
to the reading conditions, reading the image
within the required area. Thereafter, the
reading unit goes back to the home position
at a specified speed, then stops there.
