An image forming apparatus having a page sorting function includes a scanning unit to scan a plurality of pages in order, a number recognizing unit to recognize a page number on each of the scanned pages, a control unit to determine whether a current scanned page whose page number is recognized is printable based on a predetermined page sorting order and pre-scanned page numbers, and a printing unit to print the scanned page. By sorting and printing simultaneously, a total amount of time required to perform a copying process can be substantially reduced, and user's convenience is improved. |
