An image forming apparatus has an output unit for outputting image data stored in a memory. This image forming apparatus is capable of accepting a new data-output request for other image data during the output operation of the former image data. The image forming apparatus also has a built-in input unit provided in the image forming apparatus and supplying image data to the memory, an external input device for inputting image data supplied from an external apparatus, and a controller for prohibiting a new data-output request in a specific operation mode when image data supplied from the external input device is to be output in the same specific operation mode.
