ABSTRACT:
An image forming apparatus includes a scanner to scan an image of an original, a reading unit such as an image pickup device to read the image of the original which is scanned by the scanner, a memory to store the image of the original read by the reading unit, an image forming unit to form a visible image onto a recording medium on the basis of the image signal from the reading unit and the image signal from the memory, a holding member which can hold a plurality of transfer sheets and is used to transfer the visible image formed on the recording medium onto the transfer sheets held, and a controller for controlling in a manner such that in case of transferring the same image onto each of the plurality of transfer sheets, the plurality of transfer sheets are held to the holding member at irregular intervals and the visible image is formed for the first transfer sheet on the basis of the image signal from the reading unit and the visible image is formed for the second and subsequent transfer sheets on the basis of the image signal from the memory. The image forming unit has a developing unit including a plurality of developers containing developing agents of different colors, and the transfer unit overlaps and transfers the visible images developed by the developing agents of the different colors onto the transfer sheet.
