IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an image forming apparatus having an auto-clear function in which image formation can be carried out under inputted image forming conditions even after the inputted image forming conditions are reset. SOLUTION: The image forming apparatus 1 comprises an operating section 11, a storing section, a holding section, a resetting section, and a calling section. The operating section 11 has an input key 17 and a return key 21. The return key 21 is used for calling inputted image forming conditions. The storing section stores image forming conditions inputted by the input key 17. The holding section holds the image forming conditions stored at the storing section temporarily. The resetting section resets the image forming conditions stored at the storing section when the operating section 11 is not operated for a predetermined time. The calling section calls the image forming conditions stored at the storing section to the holding section when the return key 21 is depressed after the image forming conditions are reset.
