An image forming apparatus includes: a power-saving-mode determining unit configured to determine, on the basis of at least an operation state of a processor, to which power saving mode of a sleep mode in which power supply to at least a fixing device is stopped and a super sleep mode in which a power supply for the processor is turned off and power consumption is lower than that in the sleep mode the image forming apparatus transitions. The power-saving mode determining unit performs the determination if predetermined processing is not executed for time set in advance or if an instruction for executing transition processing to a power saving mode in which power consumption is lower than that in a normal operation mode in which power supply to at least the fixing device is performed is received; and a power-saving-mode control unit configured to execute, on the basis of a determination result of the power-saving-mode determining unit, processing for transition to one power saving mode of the sleep mode and the super sleep mode.
