1. An image forming system comprising:
an ink head that transfers an image onto an object;
a transporter that transports the object in a horizontal direction;
a raising/lowering leg that raises and lowers the object in a vertical direction; and
a processor configured to:
after height adjustment performed by the raising/lowering leg, if the object has a top whose height is greater than a predetermined height when the object is to be transported to the ink head, stop the transport of the object to the ink head,
when the height of the top of the object having been adjusted by the raising/lowering leg to a transport height for transfer is detected and the detected height is greater than the predetermined height, instruct the raising/lowering leg to perform a readjustment, and
when the state in which the detected height is greater than the predetermined height is not resolved after the readjustment, transport the object to a take-out position in a state in which the top of the object is lower than a lowermost portion of the ink head.
