Patent ID: 11988990

Abstract:
In an image-forming apparatus, a first sensor measures a first temperature and a relative humidity. A second sensor measures a second temperature. A controller is configured to perform: (a) calculating; (b) determining; and (c) executing. The (a) calculating calculates an internal temperature on the basis of the second temperature. The (a) calculating includes: when a target temperature of a heater is set to a printing temperature: (a-1) determining; and (a-2) correcting. The (a-2) correcting corrects, in response to determining in (a-1) that a temperature increase in the first temperature is greater than or equal to a first prescribed value and a humidity increase in an absolute humidity is greater than or equal to a second prescribed value, the internal temperature. The (c) executing executes, in response to determining in (b) that the internal temperature is greater than a threshold, a cool-down process to reduce a temperature inside a main casing.
