Abstract:
an image forming apparatus including; a non-inversion conveyance unit that conveys a sheet to a downstream without inverting through the image forming unit; an inversion conveyance unit that inverts the sheet with printing on one side and that conveys the sheet to an upstream; a first sheet inversion unit that is arranged on the inversion conveyance unit and inverts the front and back of the sheet conveyed by the inversion conveyance unit; a control unit that controls the image forming unit and the conveyance unit, wherein the control unit includes a single-sided print mode and a double-sided print mode, and at a breakpoint of jobs, the control unit discharges the sheet so as to provide charge polarity that does not electrostatically attract a sheet discharged just before the breakpoint and a sheet discharged just after the breakpoint at least in the double-sided print mode.
