Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes: a tray on which at least one sheet is loaded; a sensor and a controller. The sensor measures overall weight of the sheet loaded on the tray. The controller calculates decrement from the overall weight measured by the sensor upon completion of a job. The controller calculates total weight of the sheet loaded on the tray through execution of the job. The controller executes a logout process based on the decrement and the total weight.
