Zusammenfassung:An image forming apparatus including an ASIC provided with two functional modules that are reset together by a reset signal. The image forming apparatus stores data used for processing by the functional modules, detects errors in the functional modules, and monitors an execution state of the functional modules. When detecting an error in one of the functional modules, the image forming apparatus acquires the execution state of the other functional module in which no error is detected. When the other functional module is not currently operating, the image forming apparatus resets the ASIC by a reset signal, and when the other functional module is currently operating, the image forming apparatus suppresses resetting of the ASIC until the other functional module finishes operating and then resets the ASIC by a reset signal.
