Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a document reading unit reading an image of a document and generating scan data of the document and a printing unit printing on a sheet the scan data generated by the document reading unit, and is configured to be able to feed the sheet subjected to printing by the printing unit to a post-processing device. The image forming apparatus includes a judging unit that judges whether an image of a post-processing mark which is composed of a staple mark or a punching hole is present in the scan data generated by the document reading unit, and a printing control unit that, when the judging unit judges that the image of the post-processing mark is present in the scan data, generates corrected data by deleting the image of the post-processing mark from the scan data and causes the printing unit to print the corrected data.
