Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a generation unit configured to generate correlation data indicating a relationship between a relative position of a first image and a second image corresponding to a first speed and a relative position of the first image and the second image corresponding to a second image forming speed; a controller configured to, in a case where an image forming unit forms an image at the second speed, correct a relative position of the first image and the second image based on first information and on correlation data; and a prohibition unit configured to prohibit formation of the measurement image at the second speed in a case where a housing unit does not house a predetermined recording material corresponding to the second speed.
