Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a discharge tray determination device and a print controller. The discharge tray determination device determines a discharge tray for sample print output from available discharge trays specifiable by the image forming apparatus. The print controller divides a print job into print processes and controls print output in response to a sample print output request to cause a print process for sample print output for specifying the discharge tray determined by the discharge tray determination device to interrupt the print job.
