PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming apparatus capable of reducing a waiting time of a user and, at the same time, providing a high power-saving effect.SOLUTION: In an image forming apparatus 42, a setting time T1 is registered corresponding to a terminal management ID of a terminal device 43 and a user ID. The setting time T1 is an average value of a user's past printing waiting time and, when an elapse time T from a reception time of printing data amounts to a time difference &Dgr;T or more gained by subtracting a return time Tw from the setting time T1 in pull print outputting, a power-saving mode is released without waiting for print indication input and a heating roller 37 is warmed-up. |
