Image forming apparatus

An image forming apparatus comprising:

• an image forming unit configured to form an image on a sheet;
• a first conveyance path for conveying the sheet on which the image is formed by the image forming unit;
• an intermediate processing tray in which a plurality of sheets conveyed through the first conveyance path is stacked as a sheet bundle;
• a bookbinding unit configured to execute bookbinding for the sheet bundle stacked in the intermediate processing tray;
• a second conveyance path for conveying the sheet bundle after the bookbinding is performed for the sheet bundle by the bookbinding unit;
• a cutting unit configured to cut the sheet bundle conveyed in the second conveyance path;
• a sensor disposed at the second conveyance path and configured to detect a sheet bundle being conveyed in the second conveyance path;
• a stacking tray in which sheets discharged through a discharging path diverging from the first conveyance path are stacked;
• and
• a control unit configured to determine a discharging destination of sheets remaining in the first conveyance path,
• wherein, in response to occurrence of a paper jam based on detection information from the sensor, the control unit determines the intermediate processing tray as the discharging destination, for a sheet to be included in a same bundle as a bundle of sheets stacked in the intermediate processing tray among the remaining sheets, and determines the stacking tray as the discharging destination, for a sheet to be included in a bundle different from the bundle of the sheets stacked in the intermediate processing tray among the remaining sheets, and
• wherein, after the paper jam is cleared, the control unit causes execution of bookbinding and cutting for a sheet bundle including the remaining sheets stacked in the intermediate processing tray.
