Summary:To alleviate an increase in the temperature of a recording medium, compared with a case where conveyance of a recording medium is immediately stopped when an abnormality occurs in an image forming apparatus.SOLUTION: An image forming apparatus comprises: a conveying unit that has a holding part receiving and holding a recording medium on which a toner image is formed and a moving part moving the holding part, and that conveys the recording medium; a heating unit that heats the recording medium conveyed by the conveying unit; and a control unit that, when causing the conveying unit to stop the conveyance, performs control to cause the recording medium to retreat up to the downstream of the heating unit before causing the conveying unit to stop the conveyance.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 13 【課題】画像形成装置に異常が生じたときに記録媒体の搬送が即停止する場合と比して、記録媒体が高温となるのを抑制することである。【解決手段】画像形成装置は、トナー画像が形成される記録媒体を受け取って把持する把持部と、把持部を移動させる移動部とを有し、記録媒体を搬送する搬送部と、搬送部によって搬送される記録媒体を加熱する加熱部と、搬送部の搬送が停止する場合は、記録媒体を加熱部より下流まで退避させた後に、搬送部の搬送を停止させるよう制御をする制御部とを備える。【選択図】図13
