Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes an image forming portion for forming a toner image on a sheet; a fixing portion for heating and fixing the toner on the sheet; and a controller for controlling the apparatus which is operable to form an image on the sheet having a first size and the sheet having a second size smaller than the first size. When a print instruction on the sheet of the first size during a period in which a print is formed on the sheet of the second size at a first throughput, the controller controls the apparatus so as to print on the sheet of the second size at a second throughput which is lower than the first throughput.

Claim (Index 1):
An image forming apparatus comprising:\n an image forming portion configured to form a toner image on a recording material; a fixing portion configured to heat and fix the toner image formed on the recording material; and a controller configured to control said apparatus which is operable to form an image on the recording material having a first size and the recording material having a second size smaller than the first size, wherein when a print instruction on the recording material of the first size during a period in which a print is formed on the recording material of the second size at a first throughput, said controller controls said apparatus so as to print on the recording material of the second size at a second throughput which is lower than the first throughput.
