An image forming apparatus includes a main body, an image forming section disposed in the main body to form an image on paper, and a reciprocation section for enabling the paper to exit and re-enter the main body while the image is formed by the image forming section. A driver section moves paper to the reciprocation section and senses movement of the paper to determine whether a paper reciprocation space is clear of obstacles to reciprocate the paper. Thus, prior to image formation, it is sensed whether both the reciprocation space allowing the paper to exit and re-enter and a loading space allowing the paper on which the image is formed to be loaded are sufficiently clear of obstacles to provide efficient image formation.
