Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a photosensitive drum, a first roller, a first motor, a second roller, a second motor, an intermediary transfer member, a transfer member, a sensor unit, and a controller. The controller is capable of executing first control for controlling a recording material conveying speed by controlling the first motor on the basis of the sensor unit and second control for controlling the recording material conveying speed by controlling the first motor and the second motor before executing the first control. The controller controls the first and second motors in the second control so that a recording material conveying speed of the recording material positioned on a side upstream of the sensor unit with respect to a conveying direction of the first roller is decelerated or so that conveyance of the recording material is stopped and then the recording material conveying speed is accelerated.
