Abstract
An image forming apparatus has an image forming unit, a receiving unit, a discrimination unit, and a mode setting unit. The image forming unit forms an image on paper based on image data in either a first mode or a second mode in which image formation is more reliably performed than in the first mode. The receiving unit receives an image formation request from a user. The discrimination unit discriminates whether the user requesting image formation by the receiving unit is a first user or a second user who is less skilled in an operation of the image forming apparatus than the first user. When the discrimination unit discriminates that the user requesting image formation is the second user, a mode setting unit sets the mode to the second mode to operate the image forming unit.
