An image forming apparatus includes: an apparatus body, a paper feed cassette, a feed section, an operation control section, a paper passage detection sensor, a cassette attachment-detachment detection sensor, a paper presence-absence detection sensor, a sensor failure determination section, and an alarm control section. The paper passage detection sensor detects whether or not paper has passed through a position. The cassette attachment-detachment detection sensor detects attachment or detachment of the paper feed cassette. The paper presence-absence detection sensor detects paper absence when the paper feed cassette is withdrawn from the apparatus body. The sensor failure determination section determines that the paper presence-absence detection sensor is in failure. The alarm control section, when passage of the paper is not detected before passage of a predefined time period, alarms that the feeding of the paper has failed. |
