An image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member, a voltage applying portion, a feeding portion, a detecting portion, a storing portion, a controller for controlling a first operation in which on the basis of a detection result of the detecting portion, a kind of the recording material set in the feeding portion is stored in the storing portion, and a second operation in which an adjusting chart is outputted for adjusting a transfer voltage; and an inputting portion. In response to a single start instruction, the controller is capable of carrying out control so as to execute the first operation and the second operation for outputting the adjusting chart prepared by transferring a plurality of test images onto the recording material from which an index interrelating with the kind of the recording material is detected by the detecting portion in the first operation.

An image forming apparatus includes a transfer portion; a fixing portion; a detection unit that is capable of detecting a deflection amount of the recording material; and a controller configured to control a conveying speed of the fixing portion. The detection unit has a contact portion and a detection portion, and the contact portion is movable to a first position and a second position. The controller moves the contact portion from the second position by outputting the signal for setting the conveying speed to a second speed larger than the conveying speed when the contact portion is located at the second position, and the controller determines an abnormal state when the contact portion is located at the second position and an output time of the signal is longer than or equal to a predetermined time.
