Sheet feed for an image forming apparatus.

摘要

An image forming apparatus which converts coded characters or code information into bit map information (pixel information) and forms an image on transfer sheet on the basis thereof. The image forming apparatus comprises a receiving device for receiving code information, a converting device for converting code information into pixel information, an image forming device (37) for forming an image on a sheet (56), a carrying device (53) for carrying the sheet to the image forming device, a detecting device (52) for detecting the sheet, and a control device for controlling the carrying device so that sheet carrying is started after receiving code information for one page, stopping the sheet at a predetermined stand-by position on the basis of a detection signal from the detecting device when conversion to pixel information has not been finished, and carrying the sheet to the image forming device after the conversion.
