An image processing device includes a reception unit, an acquisition unit, and a setting unit. The reception unit receives image data that is not associated with language information. The acquisition unit acquires language information from a result of analysis of the image data received by the reception unit. The setting unit sets a language displayed on a display, based on the language information acquired by the acquisition unit.

An image forming apparatus includes a setup unit, a language identification unit, and a controller. The setup unit establishes a condition that enables group chat to be performed, among the image forming apparatus and a plurality of information processing apparatuses, by activating a group chat tool. The language identification unit identifies, when a communication device receives a message inputted to the group chat from the information processing apparatus, a language of the message. When the language identified by the language identification unit is not installed, the controller retrieves language data indicating the identified language from a storage device, and installs the identified language as a language usable with the image forming apparatus.

A printer includes a print engine, a processor, and a memory. The print engine is configured to print an image on a print medium. The memory stores instructions, the instructions, when executed by the processor, causing the printer to perform: in a case where a plurality of layers is included in a document file that is acquired from one of a storage medium connected to the printer and an apparatus configured to communicate with the printer, determining whether the plurality of layers includes a selection target layer that is a layer corresponding to a same language as a language indicated by language information acquired from an information source; in response to determining that the plurality of layers includes the selection target layer, determining a layer including the selection target layer as a print target layer; and controlling the print engine to print the print target layer.

An image forming apparatus includes one or more processors, one or more memories for storing programs including an application configured to receive a setting relating to display candidates of a plurality of languages, the programs, when executed by the one or more processors, causing the image forming apparatus to perform a process for changing a display language, and a control unit configured to control processing such that the application transmits to firmware a changing request for changing a language displayed on a screen to a different language from among the display candidates of the plurality of languages when an instruction for changing a language displayed on the screen to a different language is received.

An information processing apparatus which is capable of reliably switching display languages in response to depression of a language switching button. A display language on a display unit is switched to a language selected by a user from a list of languages displayed on the display unit. In response to selection of a language switching button by the user, the display language on the display unit is switched to one of a plurality of languages associated with the language switching button. Currently-displayed language information indicating a language currently displayed on the display unit is obtained when the language switching button is selected by the user. When the language switching button is selected by the user, the display language on the display unit is switched to one of the plurality of languages associated with the language switching button and different from a language currently displayed on the display unit.

The present invention provides an information processing apparatus having a display unit that displays a screen on which a pointing tool corresponding to a function is disposed. The information processing apparatus obtains a display language of the screen and obtains a language of the pointing tool, and in a case where the display language differs from the language, displays, on the display unit, a confirmation screen for confirming with a user whether to execute the function corresponding to the pointing tool in response to an instruction given by the user via the pointing tool.

An image forming apparatus that includes an image capturing unit capturing an image in front of the apparatus; a display displaying a screen; and a controller including one or more processors, the controller configured to function as: an acquisition unit acquiring a face image of a user from the image captured by the image capturing unit; an authentication unit authenticating, using the face image of the user acquired by the acquisition unit, the user who is within a first distance from the apparatus; a tracking unit tracking the user authenticated by the authentication unit; and a control unit causing the display to display a screen that is based on information corresponding to the user tracked by the tracking unit when the user has reached a position at a second distance from the apparatus, the second distance being shorter than the first distance.

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to perform control to initialize an item having a set value related to process execution and displaying if a first operation for initializing the item is performed. The item to be initialized is decided depending on whether an authentication state is an authenticated state where a user is authenticated or an unauthenticated state where the user is unauthenticated.

An image processing apparatus includes a control unit that acts as: a searcher searching a first and second file, each including a text that is different in language from each other; a translator generating a translated text in the second file, by translating the text in the second file into a same language as a language of the text in the first file; a comparator comparing between the text in the first file and the translated text generated from the second file, and detecting a difference between the text in the first file and the text in the second file through comparison; and an outputter creating and outputting an image including both of the text in the first file and the text in the second file, with the difference detected by the comparator marked on the text in the first file or the text in the second file.

An information processing apparatus includes a transmission unit that performs facsimile transmission to a destination and a changing unit that changes, in accordance with a language registered in the information processing apparatus, size of a certain area, in which characters including source characters for identifying a facsimile source are to be formed, of a sheet output at the destination as a result of the facsimile transmission in a height direction of the characters.
