Abstract
An image forming apparatus is provided. The image forming apparatus is capable of suppressing occurrence of a problem caused by misalignment of the feeding speed at the time of delivery and receipt in the intermediate feeding roller with a simple configuration without increasing costs. The image forming apparatus includes a drive controller that controls the drive speed of an intermediate feeding roller that performs skew correction for the sheet, and a feeding speed information acquisition section that acquires information relating to the feeding speed of the sheet to be fed to the intermediate feeding roller. The drive controller drives the intermediate feeding roller at least three different speeds based on the information relating to the feeding speed acquired by the feeding speed information acquisition section.
