In an image forming apparatus capable of selectively carrying out a color print mode or a monochromatic print mode, the individual print modes are carried out as follows. In the color print mode, images are arranged on an intermediate transfer belt 71 with a first spacing d 1 (a) suited for the color print mode, the first spacing shorter than a second spacing d 2 (a). Hence, the second spacing d 2 (a) may be increased by the amount that the first spacing d 1 (a) is decreased, so that a sufficient time for the changeover of developers 4 Y, 4 M, 4 C, 4 K may be afforded. In the monochromatic print mode, on the other hand, adjustment is made to equate the first spacing d 1 (a) to the second spacing d 2 (a). This obviates a narrowed sheet spacing.
