ABSTRACT:
An image formation method and image formation apparatus capable of forming images on both sides of a recording medium even if a first image formation unit or a second image formation unit does not have the required functions. Detection is conducted to determine whether or not the first image formation unit and second image formation unit have the required functions. If, as a result of this detection, it is determined that one of the image formation units does not have the required functions, the method of forming an image on both faces of the paper is switched to the method for forming an image using only the image formation unit having the required functions.
