IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD FOR THE SAME, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
The image forming apparatus comprising: one or more memory devices that store a set of instructions; and one or more processors that execute the set of instructions to: output a first screen on which a print sheet can be set, and a second screen for setting a parameter for controlling driving of an image forming apparatus corresponding to a type of the print sheet and determine whether or not a first object for transitioning from the first screen to the second screen is to be included in the first screen, wherein it is determined that the first object is to be included in the first screen if the print sheet for which the parameter has already been set is present.
IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
The present disclosure is directed to image forming apparatus comprising: one or more memory devices that store a set of instructions; and one or more processors that execute the set of instructions to: diagnose, based on a first reference, a first abnormality in an image formed on a sheet, and diagnose a second abnormality based on a second reference stricter than the first reference; and set whether or not to execute diagnosis of the second abnormality, wherein the second abnormality is set not to be diagnosed when the second reference is a reference by which the second abnormality cannot be detected by diagnosis.
IMAGE FORMING SYSTEM, IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, AND INSPECTION APPARATUS
An image forming system includes an image forming apparatus configured to form an image on a sheet, an inspection apparatus configured to inspect the image formed on the sheet, a display configured to display an inspection result obtained by the inspection apparatus, and a controller configured to display a mark indicating an orientation of the inspected sheet and an inspection result image representing the inspection result, wherein the controller is configured to display the mark in accordance with an orientation in which the inspection result image is displayed.
IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS SWITCHING BETWEEN APPROVING OR REJECTING USE OF FUNCTION
An image forming apparatus includes an operation device receiving an input of an instruction from a user, and a controller executing change of a password in response to a user instruction input from the operation device. The controller causes a part of functions of the image forming apparatus to be in an unavailable state until change of an initial password is executed, and causes the functions, which are prohibited from being used until change of the initial password is executed, to be in a temporarily available state when the operation device receives a predetermined special operation constituted of a combination of two or more operations.
Image forming apparatus and non-transitory computer readable medium storing image forming program capable of exchanging pieces of management information of two exchanged consumable units
An image forming apparatus includes plural image forming units including plural image forming sections and an intermediate transfer body to which a toner image formed on the plural image forming sections is primarily transferred, and a processor, in which wherein the processor is configured to, in a case where, during image formation using any of the image forming units among the image forming units, in a case where a consumable of any of the image forming sections of the image forming unit is insufficient, an image forming section of an identical color to the image forming section of which the consumable is insufficient is present in another image forming unit, and a storage medium for storing management information for managing a consumable unit is not provided in the consumable unit attached to the image forming section of which the consumable is insufficient, ask a user whether or not to exchange the consumable unit attached to the image forming section of which the consumable is insufficient and a consumable unit set in the image forming section of the other image forming unit, and, in a case where information indicating a selection to exchange the consumable units has been received from the user, exchange pieces of management information of the two exchanged consumable units.
