Image forming apparatus, method for controlling image forming apparatus, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium in which program is recorded

An image forming apparatus, comprising:

• a first apparatus configured to perform punching on a sheet by using a punching member;
• a second apparatus, including a stacking part on which a plurality of sheets punched by the first apparatus is stacked, and configured to perform binding so as to obtain a bookbinding article in which a first binding member penetrates in a ring shape through punched holes of the plurality of sheets;
• a notification unit notifying information;
• and
• a control unit configured, in a case of starting a job using the first apparatus and the second apparatus and determining that a jam has occurred in the stacking part, if the first binding member is replaceable with a second binding member that is capable of binding a sheet stack designated in the job, to cause the notification unit to display a screen for prompting replacement with the second binding member,
• wherein the control unit restarts the job without cancelling the job in a case where the jam is eliminated and the first binding member is replaced with the second binding member, and cancels the job in a case where the jam is eliminated and the first binding member is not replaced with the second binding member.
