PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce a processing time from creation of image data to transfer of a toner image to a sheet.SOLUTION: In a compound machine, a sheet conveyance time TS to convey a sheet material 16 from a supply tray 14 to a transfer position P1 is longer than image transfer times TZy and TZb to convey an electrostatic latent image and a toner image from an irradiation position P2 to a transfer position P1. In the compound machine, conveyance of the sheet material 16 is started before completion of creation of image data for respective colors used in forming an electrostatic latent image at the transfer position P1. Accordingly, a processing time from creation of image data for respective colors to transfer of the toner image to the sheet material 16 can be reduced. |
