  • Publication number: 20240126198
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a feed tray, first and second sensors, and a controller. The controller adjusts a sheet interval between the first and second recording materials based on sensor detected length and width of a recording material fed from the feed tray. When a first recording material has a first length and a second recording material has a second length longer than the first length, the controller performs control to increase a sheet interval in response to a first number of recording materials having the second length and conveyed successively. When the first recording material has the first length and the second recording material has a third length shorter than the first length, the controller performs control to reduce the sheet interval in response to a second number of recording materials having the third length and conveyed successively. The second number is greater than the first number.
