Abstract: An image forming apparatus carrying a medium along a carrying path in a medium carrying direction includes a cutting part cutting the medium carried along the carrying path, a carrying part carrying and ejecting the medium cut by the cutting part, being located at downstream side from the cutting part, a medium jam detection part detecting a jamming of the medium by the carrying part, a remaining medium detection part detecting whether the medium remains in the carrying part, a recovery process selection part that selects a recovery process according to a remaining state of the medium, which is determined by the remaining medium detection part, and a controller that, when the medium jam detection part has detected the jamming of the medium, ejects the remaining medium based on the recovery process selected by the recovery process selection part.
