Patent ID: 7151900

Claim:
An image formation device operable to form images on sheets, the image formation device comprising: a generating unit configured to generate an image formation job in order to form image data of a plurality of pages; an image formation unit configured to form an image on a sheet based upon said image data; a transport unit configured to transport the sheet; an output unit configured to output image data generated by the generating unit to the image formation unit; a detecting unit configured to detect transport failure of the sheet by the transport unit; a first determining unit configured to determine whether the output unit re-outputs the image data corresponding to a jammed sheet due to transport failure to the image formation unit based upon the image formation job generated by the generating unit; a second determining unit configured to determine whether the output unit outputs image data of the image formation job subsequent to the image data corresponding to the jammed sheet to the image formation unit in a case in which the first determining unit determines that the output unit does not re-output the image data corresponding to the jammed sheet to the image formation unit; and a control unit configured to control the output unit in accordance with the determination by the first determining unit and the second determining unit.
