摘要： An image forming apparatus (1) includes a cutter (14), an image forming section (20), and a controller (60). The cutter (14) performs cutting of a print medium (9) on the basis of a cutting instruction (INS). The image forming section (20) performs, on the basis of print data (DP), image formation on the print medium (9) with use of a consumable material (33, 31, 40, 25, 27, 9). The controller (60) calculates, on the basis of the print data (DP), an estimated use amount (TU) on the basis of a section page group (SEG) as a unit, and determines, on the basis of the estimated use amount (TU) and a usable amount (TR), whether the image forming section (20) is able to use the consumable material (33, 31, 40, 25, 27, 9). The section page group (SEG) is a page group, of the print medium (9), sectioned in accordance with the cutting instruction (INS). The estimated use amount (TU) is an amount of the consumable material (33, 31, 40, 25, 27, 9) to be used. The usable amount (TR) is a remaining amount of the consumable material (33, 31, 40, 25, 27, 9) that is usable.

摘要： An image forming apparatus (10) includes an image forming section (3), a print medium conveying section (2), and a controller (45, 48). The print medium conveying section (2) conveys a continuous print medium (9) to the image forming section (3). The controller (45, 48) receives job data and causes the image forming section (3) to perform, on the continuous print medium (9), an image forming operation based on the job data. The job data includes cuttable position data related to a cuttable position (CP) on the continuous print medium (9). When a pause signal is received, the controller (45, 48) causes, on the basis of the cuttable position data, the image forming operation to be continued up to an image forming end position (EP) on the continuous print medium (9), and thereafter pauses the image forming operation. The pause signal gives an instruction to pause the image forming operation. The image forming end position (EP) corresponds to the cuttable position (CP).
