An image forming apparatus comprises a fixing unit for fixing toner image
onto a sheet on which the toner image is formed, and a redelivery path
for delivering the fixed sheet ejected from the fixing unit to the image
forming unit again. A curved path receives the fixed sheet ejected from
the fixing unit, reverses the sheet, and delivers the sheet to the
redelivery path again. The redelivery path includes a
horizontal-registration detection sensor for detecting the edge of the
sheet in the width direction and a color density sensor for detecting the
color density and color of an image formed on the sheet. A curl-corrector
is disposed downstream of the curved path to straighten the curled sheet
and then send the sheet to the horizontal-registration detection sensor
and the density sensor.
