An image forming system includes a non-transparent image forming apparatus including a first image forming station for forming a non-transparent toner image and for transferring the non-transparent toner image onto a recording material, and a transparent image forming apparatus including a second image forming station for forming a transparent toner image and for transferring the transparent toner image onto the recording material discharged from a first image heating unit. Formation of images as a combination of the non-transparent image and the transparent image is capable on both sides of the recording material by controlling a first re-feeding unit and a second re-feeding unit. The image forming system further includes a first reversing unit for feeding the recording material discharged from the first image heating unit to the second image forming station with a reversed facing orientation, and a controller for controlling the first reversing unit in accordance with a combination of a non-transparent image formation process and a transparent image formation process for both sides of recording material. |
