An image forming apparatus includes a conveyance control unit that controls conveyance of a recording unit. The conveyance control unit switches a conveyance direction of the recording unit at return points on both sides of a scanning direction to reciprocate the recording unit, and controls a speed of the recording unit to a target speed until the recording unit reaches a control changeover point from the return point upstream in the conveyance direction. The target speed is set to be symmetrical in a zone in which the recording unit is shifted to a constant speed state from a start point of an image forming area and in a zone in which the recording unit reaches the end point of the image forming area from a deceleration start point.
