Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a sheet stacking portion, an image forming portion, a detection portion configured to detect a position, in a sheet width direction, a storage configured to store position information of a sheet, and a controller. The controller is configured to cause the storage to store the position information based on a position of a sheet detected by the detection portion during execution of the job, and if sheet information of a sheet used in a previous job is matches sheet information of a sheet used in a current job, cause the image forming portion to start formation of an image to be formed on a first sheet, before a position of the first sheet is detected by the detection portion, based on the position information stored in the storage in the previous job.
