SHEET CONVEYING APPARATUS, IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR ESTIMATING BASIS WEIGHT OF SHEET, AND PROGRAM FOR ESTIMATING BASIS WEIGHT OF SHEET

摘要

A sheet conveying apparatus capable of conveying a sheet as a conveyance target in a conveyance path includes a detector that detects capacitance in a predetermined detection region in the conveyance path; and a basis weight identifier that identifies a basis weight of the sheet as the conveyance target on the basis of first capacitance detected by the detector while the sheet as the conveyance target does not pass through the detection region and second capacitance detected by the detector while the sheet as the conveyance target passes through the detection region.
