Image forming apparatus

An image forming apparatus including an image processing unit and an ejected-sheet tray, the image forming apparatus comprising:

• a pair of first sheet ejecting rollers and a pair of second sheet ejecting rollers that eject, onto the ejected-sheet tray, a recording sheet on which an image is formed by the image processing unit with use of a developer, the pair of second sheet ejecting rollers being positioned above the pair of first sheet ejecting rollers;
• a guide member that selectively guides the recording sheet to the pair of first sheet ejecting rollers or the pair of second sheet ejecting rollers;
• a controller that controls the pair of first sheet ejecting rollers, the pair of second sheet ejecting rollers, and the guide member so that, while a recording sheet that is to be ejected by the pair of first sheet ejecting rollers onto the ejected-sheet tray is being held by the pair of first sheet ejecting rollers in a stopped state, the pair of second sheet ejecting rollers is in a stopped state and hold an immediately subsequent recording sheet transported from the image processing unit above the ejected-sheet tray;
• and
• a fan that moves air past the pair of first sheet ejecting rollers and the pair of second sheet ejecting rollers toward the recording sheet held by the pair of first sheet ejecting rollers and the immediately subsequent recording sheet held by the pair of second sheet ejecting rollers.
