Information processing apparatus, image forming apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable medium storing program
An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to display an operation screen for receiving an operation regarding setting information of an image forming apparatus that operates in association with the setting information with optimum values changing depending on external factors on a display device and receive an operation on the operation screen, in which the processor is configured to display a creation screen that is one of the operation screen and is used to newly create the setting information, on the display device, receive an input of a reason for creation of the new setting information on the creation screen and specify an item to be set corresponding to the received reason for creation among setting items in the setting information, and display the specified item on the operation screen to be identifiable with respect to other setting items.
IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS
An image forming apparatus includes an image forming device that forms an image on a recording material, a forming device storage space storing the image forming device, a temperature adjustment space where a temperature adjustment device adjusts temperature, and a supply unit that supplies air in the temperature adjustment space into the forming device storage space.
IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS
An image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member, a transfer member, a power source, a detecting portion, a controller, an environment detecting portion, and a contact member. In a case that an absolute water content acquired on the basis of environmental information is a predetermined threshold or more, the controller sets a limit voltage on the basis of a detection result of the detecting portion in a state in which the recording material is absent in a transfer portion, and the controller controls the power source so that an absolute value of a voltage applied from the power source to the transfer member during contact of the recording material with the transfer member and the contact member is an absolute value or less of the limit voltage.
Post-processing device and image forming apparatus
A post-processing device includes an output unit that outputs a medium; a stacking unit on which the medium that is output is stacked; and a blow-out unit that is disposed below the output unit and that blows gas toward the medium that is output, wherein an amount of the gas blown is adjusted in accordance with a type of the medium.

Image forming apparatus with an attraction member that removes fines particles
An image forming apparatus includes a transfer member, a fixing member, a guide member, and an attraction member. The transfer member transfers a developer to a medium. The fixing member fixes onto the medium the developer transferred to the medium. The guide member is disposed between the transfer member and the fixing member to guide the medium. The attraction member attracts the developer through the opening. An opening is located upstream of the guide member in a medium transport direction.
Sheet conveying device and image forming apparatus incorporating the sheet conveying device
A sheet conveying device includes a first duct, a second duct, and a switching member. The first duct is disposed at a first side of a sheet conveyance passage to face a first face of a sheet passing the sheet conveyance passage and has a first air blowing port through which air is blown toward the sheet conveyance passage. The second duct is disposed at a second side of the sheet conveyance passage to face a second face of the sheet passing the sheet conveyance passage and has a second air blowing port through which air is blown toward the sheet conveyance passage. The switching member is disposed downstream from the first and second air blowing ports in a sheet conveyance direction and configured to switch the sheet conveyance passage. No pair of rollers is disposed between the switching member and each of the first and second blowing ports.
