A drive controller includes a first drive circuit, a first capacitance element and a first processing part and a second processing part. The first drive circuit supplies a current output from a power source to a first load. The first capacitance element is connected to a power supply path between the power source and the first drive circuit. The first processing part is configured to apply a charge from the power source and to charge the first capacitance element before power supply to the first load is started. The second processing part is configured to supply a current output from the power source and a current corresponding to a charge charged in the first capacitance element to the first load through the first drive circuit after the first capacitance element is charged.
