Disclosed an image forming apparatus to form an image on a basis of an image data file stored in an external memory, including: an expansion memory to expand the image data file; a memory residual capacity calculating section to calculate a residual capacity of the expansion memory; a memory occupying amount predicting section to predict a memory occupying amount necessary to expand the image data file into the expansion memory; a specification section to specify an image formable image data file which is processable by the image forming apparatus among the image data files stored in the external memory on a basis of the residual capacity of the expansion memory and the memory occupying amount, and a display controlling section to display a file name of the specified image formable image data file in a display section.
