Image forming apparatus with auto-clear function
 An image forming apparatus capable of making copies under either predetermined standard copy conditions or copy conditions optionally set by an operator. After the final key input, or at the completion of a copying process, a first timer is set to count a predetermined time period. When the first timer finishes counting, the copy conditions are automatically set to the standard conditions. The above apparatus is provided with a guidance mode for the purpose of explaining the method for setting the functions and copy conditions within the apparatus to an inexperienced operator. In the case where the guidance mode is set by the operator, a second timer is set to count a predetermined time period longer than the time period counted by the first timer. When the second timer finishes counting, the copy conditions are automatically set to the standard conditions.
