Abstract: With stoppage of recording material feeding including a first belt and a second belt (YES in S1), a controller causes cooling operation for the recording material by a cooling fan and a belt fan to continue without stop (S4). By continuing the cooling operation of a recording material cooling device, even if the recording material stagnates in the recording material cooling device in a state of being nipped by the first belt and the second belt, the temperature of the recording material can be lowered. Then, the toner on the recording material is cooled, the toner on the recording material is unlikely to adhere to the first belt or to the second belt.

Abstract: An external cooling device 101 is connectable to an image forming apparatus 100. The external cooling device 101 improves cooling power of a recording material S after toner image fixation. In this case, even when a heating amount of the fixing device 11 is increased, a temperature of the recording material S stacked on a stacking unit 60 can be lowered to not more than a predetermined temperature at which sticking does not occur. Further, the number of sheets stackable on said stacking unit 60 can be increased. By this, a user is capable of adjusting glossiness without concern for the sticking of the recording materials S on the stacking unit 60. Further, the user is not required to frequently carry out the recording material S of the stacking unit 60. That is, it is possible to provide an image forming system 1X capable of flexibly meeting the recording materials S of various kinds.

Abstract: An electrophotographic image forming apparatus includes: a rotatable member; a web; a mechanism; a contact portion; a plurality of displacing portions; a detecting portion; a notifying portion; a first counting portion; a prohibiting portion; and a second counting portion. The prohibiting portion prohibits an image forming process when the detecting portion detects displacement of the contact portion when the number of times of the image forming process counted by the second counting portion is less than a predetermined number. The notifying portion prompts an exchange of the web when the detecting portion detects the displacement of the contact portion when the number of times is not less than the predetermined number.
