According to an embodiment, an image forming apparatus includes an image forming unit that forms an image on a sheet. A heat source heats the sheet at a control temperature according to a job type. A storage unit includes a job queue that registers jobs in a received order. When a plurality of jobs that differ in the control temperature are registered in the job queue, a controller groups the jobs registered in the job queue into job groups according to the control temperature. The controller also changes an execution order of the job groups in the job queue into the ascending order of the control temperature of the heat source, and executes the jobs registered in the job queue according to the changed order.
