ABSTRACT:
An image forming apparatus includes a memory for storing image information. The image information stored in the memory can be printed onto both surfaces of paper sheets. A resupplying path guide sheets having information printed on a first surface thereof to a printer for subsequent printing on a second surface of the sheets. The resupplying path includes at least one standby position for suspending the sheets. Further, the total number of sheets introduced into the resupplying path can be controlled to ensure that no collision of sheets occurs. Further, such an operation can be intermitted by a further printing operation, and such a process can be executed prior to outputting sheets to a finishing device.
