Abstract
An image forming apparatus (1) includes a recording head section (4), a spray section (10), and a controller (9). The recording head section (4) forms an image on a paper sheet (S). The spray section (10) sprays a drug toward the paper sheet (S) to form a drug region (R) on the paper sheet (S). The controller (9) controls the spray section (10). The controller (9) controls the spray section (10) such that at least a part of the image formed on the paper sheet (S) and at least a part of the drug region (R) overlap each other.
