1. A process for controlling in an image forming apparatus, the image forming apparatus comprising an electrification roller electrifying a surface of a photosensitive drum, a laser scanning unit forming an electrostatic latent image on the surface of the photosensitive drum, a developing machine making the electrostatic latent image visible, a transfer roller transferring the image to a recording paper and a fixer fixing the image transferred to the recording paper, the process comprising the steps of: storing within a memory image data to be printed when a print demand is received; detecting the kind of paper selected by a user; editing by reducing the number of pixels of the image data at a certain rate when the detected paper is thicker than a certain thickness; and transmitting the edited image data to the laser scanning unit and performing the printing work for the edited image data.
