Abstract
An image forming apparatus which eliminates the necessity of carrying out wasteful operations such as retry of a job and therefore improves work efficiency. A print job is carried out to thereby form an image on a recording sheet. When an image abnormality formed on the recording sheet is detected, a controller temporarily suspends the print job. An operating unit displays a screen for prompting a user to input an instruction as to whether to continue the print job. The controller determines whether to continue the print job based on the instruction input by the user.
