An image processing apparatus includes a controller capable of generating occurrence of an event to be audited, as log information; a storage that stores the log information; an outputter that reads and outputs the log information stored in the storage in response to an acquisition request for the log information by an information processing apparatus; and an adder that adds, to the log information, identification information indicating that the log information has been stored in the information processing apparatus. The controller stores the log information added with the identification information in the storage. In a case where a storage amount of the log information stored in the storage has reached an upper limit when newly storing log information generated in association with occurrence of the event, the controller deletes the log information added with the identification information from the storage, and stores the generated log information.

A printing control apparatus includes a conveying unit that conveys a document to a reading unit, a detection unit that detects a size of the document before it begins to be conveyed, a detection unit that detects the size of the document after the document begins to be conveyed, and a control unit that performs a copy job using the reading unit and printing unit based on the size of the document detected before it is conveyed in a case where the printing unit starts to print the image data before the reading unit finishes generating image data for one page and performs a copy job based on the size of the document detected after it begins to be conveyed in a case where the printing unit starts to print the image data after the reading unit finishes generating image data for at least one page.

An image forming apparatus includes a setting unit, an image reading unit, an image forming unit, and a setting changing unit. The setting unit sets copying conditions. The image reading unit reads images from sheets to generate image data and writes the image data into a memory unit. The image forming unit forms images on sheets based on the image data written into the memory unit. The setting changing unit changes the setting of the copying conditions when a new copying condition is set during the image forming of the image data written into the memory unit.

A service use support device used for receiving a plurality of services, includes a hardware processor that: acquires one or more of target images to be processed; selects a preferred service from among the plurality of services for each of the one or more of target images on the basis of a degree at which each attribute satisfies a condition set for each of the plurality of services; and transfers each of the one or more of target images to a provider that provides each preferred service.

An image forming apparatus including an application is disclosed. The image forming apparatus includes a determining unit that, when the application starts in the image forming apparatus, checks first information indicating a function to be used by the application against second information indicating a function supported by the image forming apparatus so as to determine whether the function to be used by the application is executable, and changes operations of the application according to a determination result. The determining unit is automatically updated if the determining unit does not support a structure of the first information or a structure of the second information.

A device management apparatus configured to manage a managed device connected thereto via a network, the device management apparatus includes circuitry configured to: present use change information that allows a use change instruction of a function provided in the managed device; determine set values corresponding to the use change instruction for set values of various setting items required to execute the function to which the use change is instructed; and change the set values of the setting items related to the function to which the use change is instructed, for each of managed devices, from the set values before the use change instruction to the determined set values.

An image processing apparatus for reading a document to generate image data using a reading unit performs, receiving a job including a document reading-and-transmission job for causing the reading unit to read a document to generate image data and then transmitting the image data to a specified destination, from an information processing apparatus communicable via a network, storing the received job, displaying a list of the stored jobs in response to a user instruction, displaying a confirmation screen related to transmission setting contents of a document reading-and-transmission job selected from the list of jobs, and executing, in a case where execution of the selected document reading-and-transmission job is instructed via the confirmation screen, the document reading-and-transmission job.

An image processing apparatus includes a controller capable of generating occurrence of an event to be audited, as log information; a storage that stores the log information; an outputter that reads and outputs the log information stored in the storage in response to an acquisition request for the log information by an information processing apparatus; and an adder that adds, to the log information, identification information indicating that the log information has been stored in the information processing apparatus. The controller stores the log information added with the identification information in the storage. In a case where a storage amount of the log information stored in the storage has reached an upper limit when newly storing log information generated in association with occurrence of the event, the controller deletes the log information added with the identification information from the storage, and stores the generated log information.

A conveyance device that conveys paper through a conveyance path along a surface thereof includes: a conveyance guide that has a guide surface to be a wall surface on one side of the conveyance path, an opening being formed in the guide surface; a paper detection unit at least including a detection member, which is arranged in a space that communicates with the conveyance path through the opening, and configured to detect, with the detection member, a leading end of the paper that reaches the opening; and a movable body that brings the detection member into a retracted state, in which a main part thereof is covered from the space, after the leading end of the paper is detected.
