<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable, without altering the configuration of an image forming apparatus, a density sensor calibration paper to be read by a density sensor without being passed through a fixing unit. Ž<P>SOLUTION: The image forming apparatus includes a second conveyance path 102 communicating with the downstream side of the fixing unit 40. In a calibrating operation mode for an image sensor 60, a calibration chart inserted into the second conveyance path 102 via an opening P, which is used for taking out a jammed paper, is conveyed to a readable position of the density sensor 60 by conveying rollers 55, 54, 52, and 53. On the basis of the density read by the density sensor 60, the density sensor 60 is calibrated. Ž<P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT Ž
