An image forming apparatus has an operation part for specifying information to be recorded on a sheet, a recognition part for recognizing the information specified by the operation part, an input interface for receiving sequentially a first serial image data representing an image, a bit image generation part supplied with the first serial video data for forming bit images in response thereto, a memory having a memory area for storing the bit images formed by the bit image generation part in the memory area, a comparison part operatively connected on the one hand to the memory for reading out the bit images stored therein and on the other hand to the recognition part for receiving the information to be recorded on the sheet, the comparison part producing the output such that the output is changed with increasing occupation of the memory area by the bit images, and a reporting part connected to the comparison part for receiving the output from the comparison part and for displaying the proportion of the memory area of the memory which is already occupied by the bit images.
