Abstract: A processor causes, when the number of initial insertion sheets is one or more, an insertion conveying portion and a takeover conveying portion to operate at either one of a conveying speed that is the same as a print conveying speed corresponding to a first recording sheet and a reference conveying speed according to a magnitude relationship between the number of initial insertion sheets and an initial sheet count in conveyance of the initial insertion sheets. In addition, the processor causes a body conveying portion and the takeover conveying portion to operate at the corresponding print conveying speed in conveyance of the recording sheet irrespective of the number of initial insertion sheets.

Abstract: A rotation device rotates a sheet on an upstream side of, in a sheet conveyance orientation, a working device positioned in a middle of a conveyance path, thereby changing an orientation of the sheet. An information acquiring portion acquires sheet size information and sheet orientation information representing a size and the orientation of the sheet in a sheet storing portion, and working position information representing a working position on the sheet. A rotation control portion controls the rotation device in accordance with the sheet orientation information and the working position information. The working control portion controls the working device in accordance with the orientation of the sheet after passing through the rotation device, and the sheet size information and the working position information.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus is capable of compositing a plurality of pieces of image data. The image forming apparatus includes a color conversion and compression unit, an expansion and composition unit, and an image forming unit. The color conversion and compression unit color-converts and then compresses each of the plurality of pieces of image data in units of band data, the band data being part of the image data. The expansion and composition unit expands and composites, in units of the band data, the plurality of pieces of image data color-converted and then compressed in units of the band data by the color conversion and compression unit. The image forming unit forms an image on the basis of the band data composited by the expansion and composition unit.
