Image forming apparatus, and method and computer-readable medium for the same

摘要

An image forming apparatus including a first temperature sensor inside a space between frames, a second temperature sensor outside the space between the frames, and a controller that, in a case where a first temperature by the first temperature sensor is higher than an inside threshold temperature, and a second temperature by the second temperature sensor is higher than an outside threshold temperature, performs simplex image formation at a first speed when simplex image formation is specified, and performs duplex image formation at a second speed lower than the first speed when duplex image formation is specified, and in at least one of a case where the first temperature is equal to or less than the inside threshold temperature and a case where the second temperature is equal to or less than the outside threshold temperature, performs image formation at the first speed.

1. An image forming apparatus comprising:
a plurality of frames; an image forming assembly supported by the plurality of frames, the image forming assembly being configured to perform image formation on a sheet; a first temperature sensor disposed inside a space between the plurality of frames, the first temperature sensor being configured to detect a first temperature inside the space between the plurality of frames by outputting a signal corresponding to the first temperature; a second temperature sensor disposed outside the space between the plurality of frames, the second temperature sensor being configured to detect a second temperature outside the space between the plurality of frames by outputting a signal corresponding to the second temperature; and a controller configured to:
when the first temperature detected by the first temperature sensor is higher than an inside threshold temperature, the second temperature detected by the second temperature sensor is higher than an outside threshold temperature, and simplex image formation is specified as an image forming mode, control the image forming assembly to perform image formation on a single side of the sheet while conveying the sheet at a first conveyance speed;when the first temperature detected by the first temperature sensor is higher than an inside threshold temperature, the second temperature detected by the second temperature sensor is higher than an outside threshold temperature, and duplex image formation is specified as the image forming mode, control the image forming assembly to perform image formation on both sides of the sheet while conveying the sheet at a second conveyance speed, the second conveyance speed being lower than the first conveyance speed; andin at least one of a case where the first temperature is equal to or less than the inside threshold temperature and a case where the second temperature is equal to or less than the outside threshold temperature, control the image forming assembly to perform image formation on the sheet while conveying the sheet at the first conveyance speed.
