An image forming machine ( 1 ) that can select a most appropriate recording sheet. The image forming machine ( 1 ) may be a facsimile machine having a photocopy function. The facsimile machine has a 100% magnification preferred mode and a one-page-printing preferred mode. In the latter mode, an image may be reduced for printing, or two images may be combined and printed on a single sheet of paper. ROM ( 30 ) stores a plurality of print types in a predetermined order for each of these modes (PT 1 , PT 2 ). The facsimile machine ( 1 ) has a plurality of paper cassettes ( 51, 52, 53 ) to store recording sheets. A controller ( 10 ) selects one of the paper cassettes which best suits for the printing under a predetermined criterion, and causes a printer ( 50 ) to print the image on one or more recording sheets supplied from the selected paper cassette.
