Image forming apparatus and method to determine control temperatures for cooling control of inside of the image forming apparatus

An image forming apparatus comprising:

• a main body housing;
• a holder configured to hold a cartridge storing developer and to be removably attached to an image formation position in the main body housing;
• a temperature sensor disposed at the holder;
• and
• a controller configured to:
• start and stop cooling control to cool an inside of the main body housing based on a control temperature based on a temperature detected by the temperature sensor;
• when the holder is removed out of the image formation position during the cooling control, continue the cooling control;
• stop the cooling control when an elapsed time since the holder was removed out of the image formation position is equal to or longer than a particular time, in a state where the holder remains removed out of the image formation position.
