Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes an ink head unit, a precoating head unit, and a control part. The ink head unit ejects ink to a printing base material conveyed along a predetermined conveying direction. The precoating liquid head unit is disposed on an upstream side of the ink head unit in the conveying direction and ejects precoating liquid to the printing base material. The control part controls the precoating liquid head unit so as to eject the precoating liquid. When a surface tension of the recording base material is smaller than a predetermined value, the control part controls the precoating liquid head unit to eject a predetermined amount of the precoating liquid.
