An image forming apparatus has a forming mechanism (6) forming, upon receipt of a sort printing instruction, an image on a plurality of recording media based on given image information, a sensor (29) for detecting an empty state of each bin in a sorter, a control circuit (12) for judging whether or not to feed the plurality of recording media as an additional print output into bins based on a result of this detection, and an output mechanism (21) for, if it is judged that this can be done, allows the recording media to be fed as an additional print output into the corresponding bins in the sorter, in which whether or not the recording media can be additionally print-outputted is automatically judged, for example, under the condition that the former user and current user is the same person and printing can be carried out in a sort mode.
