An image forming apparatus includes: a casing including a first side surface, and a second side surface opposing the first side surface in the first direction, and an NFC board and a USB board that are disposed in the casing. The NFC board has a first board surface. The USB board has a second board surface on which a USB port is mounted. The NFC board and The USB board that are disposed in the casing at a position closer to the first side surface in the first direction than the second side surface. The second board surface is located at a level different from the first board surface in the direction normal to the first board surface. The USB board does not overlap with the NFC board when viewed in the direction normal to the first board surface.

An information processing system transmits and receives sound data through a switching equipment. The information processing system includes: a transmitting end image forming apparatus that has a facsimile function to transmit communication sounds through the switching equipment; a receiving end image forming apparatus that has a facsimile function to receive the communication sounds through the switching equipment; a controller that generates a sound recording start command to start a recording of the communication sounds, and transmits the sound recording start command to the receiving end image forming apparatus; and a sound recorder that starts the recording of the communication sounds in the receiving end image forming apparatus when the receiving end image forming apparatus receives the sound recording start command.

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a camera, a display, a communication module, a memory, and a processor that is electrically connected to the camera, the display, the communication module, and the memory. The processor transmits an advertising signal including first identification (ID) information of the electronic device to a peripheral external device by using a first communication scheme, receives a response signal including second ID information of the external device by using the first communication scheme, and stores image data collected through the camera to the memory in connection with the second ID information when a first user input shooting an image is made.

A server system, a terminal device, an operating information collection system, a program, a server system operating method, and a terminal device operating method communicate information for appropriately displaying the time until printing is completed when using a terminal device to monitor the time until a job on the monitored device will be completed. A server system 7 is a server system that collects operating information of a monitored device, and includes a communicator 731 and a processor 71. The processor 71 causes the communicator 731 to send job completion time information to a terminal device 9, and when a specific event causing a change in the time until job completion occurs, sends correction information for the job completion time information to the terminal device 9 by push notification.

An information processing apparatus includes: a designation unit that allows a user of a transmission source of a document to designate a transmission destination user and a transmission destination terminal; and a transmission unit that transmits the document and transmission destination information indicative of the transmission destination user and the transmission destination terminal designated with the designation unit to an apparatus that transmits the document to the transmission destination terminal.

Systems for providing on-demand food service material printing for food service are provided herein. A food service material dispenser comprises a roll holder configured to hold a roll of food service material, one or more rollers, and a motor configured to operate to translate the food service material along a path within the dispenser. The dispenser includes a cutting arrangement configured to perform a cut of the food service material to form the sheet of food service material that defines a size associated with a food service order. The dispenser also includes a printer configured to print at least one of order information or personalization information on the food service material that is based on the associated food service order. The dispenser further includes a chute configured to dispense the sheet of food service material, which includes the at least one of order information or personalization information printed thereon.

An electronic device includes a power unit that accommodates a battery; a communication unit that wirelessly communicates with an external device; and a printer unit that prints print data obtained by the communication unit on a recording paper, wherein an outer appearance of the electronic device is a cylindrical shape.

An information processing device comprising circuitry configured to: acquire identification information for identifying a model; acquire attribute information indicating an attribute of each of a plurality of programs applicable to the model, based on the identification information; and select a program to be installed from the plurality of programs, based on a priority order that is determined in advance for the attribute information.

An image forming apparatus includes a data input unit, an instruction input unit, an image forming unit, a display unit, and a controller. The controller causes the display unit to display, when first document data is received through the data input unit, and character strings expressed by the first document data include a first character string containing a misspelling, a second character string that may possibly be substituted for the first character string. The controller also generates, upon receipt of an instruction to select the second character string through the instruction input unit, second document data on a basis of the first document data, by substituting the first character string in the character strings expressed by the first document data, with the second character string selected.

An image reading device includes a turning unit and a reading unit having a reader and a reading glass. The reader reads, through the reading glass, an image on a sheet placed on the reading glass. The turning unit can turn with respect to the reading unit. The turning unit includes a pressing plate, a communication unit, and an attachment part. The pressing plate presses a sheet on the reading glass against the reading glass when the turning unit is at a position closing the reading glass. The communication unit receives data from outside the image reading device by wireless communication. The communication unit is detachably mounted within the turning unit. The attachment part attaches the communication unit and has a weight mounting portion capable of mounting a weight.
