PURPOSE:To simplify a work, and to execute it in a short time by providing a form discharge means for making an image formation release means and a store part discharge means effective, when the operation of a low temperature control means is selected, while a form detecting means is detecting a form. CONSTITUTION:When a timer 55 has become a time-up, or when a power-saving key 32 is operated, whether a form detecting sensor 25 is turned on or not is discriminated, and when the form detecting sensor is turned off, that is to say, when a form exists in an intermediate tray 10, the operation of devices such as an electrifying charger 7 and a developing device 6, etc., which are related to a copying process is stopped, a paper feeding roller 11 is turned on, and also, a carrying belt 17, etc., for constituting a carrying part are driven. It is continuously executed until the form detecting sensor 25 is turned on, that is to say, until the form is gone from the intermediate tray 10. In this way, after the inside of the intermediate tray 10 becomes empty, the temperature of a fixing device is controlled to a low temperature, therefore, the start of a multiplex image forming work which is executed in the next time can be performed without delay. |
