ABSTRACT:
An image forming apparatus has an image forming unit for forming an image on a recording medium; a conveying unit having a conveying part for conveying the recording medium while contacting the recording medium; a detection unit for detecting the chromaticity or the density of the image formed on the recording medium; and a control unit for controlling the image forming unit based on the chromaticity or the density of the image detected by the detection unit. The image forming unit forms an image for which the chromaticity or the density is to be detected at a predetermined position on the recording medium whereat the recording medium does not contact the conveying parts of the conveying unit. With this configuration, an image having a stable quality can be formed.
