Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a reading section, a detection section, a determination section, and a decision section. The reading section reads an image of a first document and generates a document information item indicating the image and a sheet color of the first document. The reading section also reads an image of a second document and generates a document information item indicating the image and a sheet color of the second document. The detection section detects sheet colors based on the respective document information items. The determination section determines whether or not the sheet color each match any one of specific colors other than the white color. When the determination section determines that a sheet color matches one of the specific colors, the decision section decides a transmission address of the document information items based the one specific color.

Claim (Index 7):
