  • Publication number: 20220116510
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus include a printing engine to form an image on a print medium and circuitry. The circuitry determines whether each page of print data is a blank page, determines whether a blank sheet is to be generated by printing of the print data in accordance with print settings, determines whether to remove a blank page from the print data to avoid generation of the blank sheet, generates changed print data based on whether to remove the blank page in accordance with the print settings, controls the printing engine to perform printing on the print medium according to the changed print data in accordance with the print settings, and counts a number of pages printed, excluding blank pages in the printed pages and the blank page which have been removed from the print data.
