    摘要: An image forming apparatus capable of grouping a plurality of sheet storage units for feeding sheets of a same type in an image forming operation. The image forming apparatus includes a plurality of storage units for storing sheets and a sheet feeder operable to feed the sheets from the plurality of storage units. The apparatus also includes a grouping unit allowing a user to group the storage units based on the type of sheets. A controller controls the sheet feeder to feed sheets from the group of storage units such that when one storage unit becomes empty, the controller controls the sheet feeder to feed sheets from another storage unit of the group of storage units.

    摘要: There are provided an image forming apparatus which implements divisional control using a plurality of control units without an increase in cost and a control method for the apparatus. To accomplish this, this image forming apparatus includes a master control unit that controls the overall image forming apparatus, a plurality of sub-master control units that control a plurality of functions for performing image formation, and a plurality of salve control units that control loads for implementing a plurality of functions. The master control unit is connected to the plurality of sub-master control units via first signal lines. The plurality of sub-master control units are connected to the plurality of slave control units via second signal lines higher in data transfer timing accuracy than the first signal lines.
