Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a hardware processor that functions as a registration corrector and an information presenter; and a first storage. With a registration sensor, the registration corrector detects a formation manner of a registration pattern of each color formed on the intermediate transfer belt, and corrects a color shift amount of each color based on a detection result. The first storage stores measurement data of the color shift amount of each color measured by the registration corrector. The information presenter presents operation assistance information to the operator based on the measurement data stored in the first storage when the registration corrector indicates an error.
