An image forming apparatus includes an image forming portion configured to form an image on a sheet; and an operating portion including a display screen which includes at least numeric keys, a start key configured to cause the image forming portion to start image formation, and a stop key configured to stop the image formation by the image forming portion, and including a hardware key provided on a back side of the display screen and configured to start a maintenance mode of the image forming apparatus.

A communication apparatus is provided and includes a display configured to display information and at least one controller configured to cause the display to display a PIN code set in the communication apparatus; and output a guidance voice regarding a remote setting change using a tone signal to an external apparatus via voice communication depending on reception of a tone signal corresponding to the PIN code from the external apparatus via voice communication.

A recording medium storing a computer program that causes a computer to control a multifunctional machine having a copy function and a scan function and causes the computer to execute a process, the process including receiving a setting of a copy gesture corresponding to the copy function, receiving a setting of a scan gesture corresponding to the scan function, broadcasting to users who are permitted to use the copy function a message including the copy gesture such that the users can recognize the copy gesture, broadcasting to users who are permitted to use the scan function a message including the scan gesture such that the users can recognize the scan gesture, and causing the multifunctional machine to execute control such that, when the copy gesture is received, the multifunctional machine performs copying and, when the scan gesture is received, the multifunctional machine performs scanning is configured.

An image processing device including: a display; a microphone; a hardware processor; and a memory including instructions that when executed by the hardware processor cause the image processing device to: display a default setting screen on the display, the default setting screen being registered in advance; receive a setting via manual operation of the default setting screen; receive a setting via voice input received by the microphone; judge whether or not a setting value according to the voice input is a specific setting value not displayed on the default setting screen; and display a specific screen on the display when judging positively, the specific screen corresponding to the setting value and being different from the default setting screen.

An information processing apparatus comprises a touch input unit by which touch input is possible and a Web browser function for displaying Web content on a display unit, wherein the Web browser function comprises: an analyzing unit configured to analyze Web content displayed on the display unit, and a setting unit configured to, in accordance with content of the Web content analyzed by the analyzing unit, set a value to be used when a type of a touch input operation inputted at the touch input unit is determined.

A communication terminal for communicative connection to at least one other communication terminal via a network includes a receiving part configured to receive stroke data transmitted from the other communication terminal, an obtaining part configured to obtain name information that is associated with a transmission source of the stroke data under management by a management system on the network, and a display control part configured to perform control that displays an image based on the stroke data and an image based on the obtained name information in association with each other.

Order management methods, systems and devices are disclosed. A menu associated with a general service zone (8), such as a restaurant is presented to an ordering user, typically via a screen (11) of a mobile electronic device (10), and input selections are received from the ordering user to generate an order therefrom. An order comprises at least one selected menu item from the menu, and also a unique order identifier. One of a plurality of serving locations (8a, 8b, 8c) within the general service zone (8) is chosen, and a serving location identifier that uniquely identifies the chosen serving location is determined. The order and the determined serving location identifier are associated with one another. The order and the serving location identifier are transmitted to a service instruction system (4) of the general service zone (8). A service instruction is issued, via the service instruction system (8), to service staff to fulfil the order at said chosen serving location.

A display device, method, computer-readable storage medium and user interface, each of which detects contact to or proximity of an object with respect to a generated image, and responsive to detection of contact to or proximity of the object to the generated image, disables any operational functions associated with a first portion of the generated image. Additionally, operation associated with a second portion of the generated image is allowed responsive to the detection of contact to or proximity of the object to the generated image, where the second portion of the generated image is different from the first portion of the generated image. An indication corresponding to the second portion of the generated image for which operation is enabled may be displayed on the generated image.

In a case where a predetermined region to perform a next operation on an operation screen relative to a touch position onto a touch panel is made a destination, a guide device makes a force sense presenter generate a guide-use virtual force sense directed to the destination by using relative position information, received from a main body apparatus, up to the destination relative to the touch position.

An image forming apparatus includes an operation display movably mounted on a mount face and a linkage defining a movement range of the operation display. The linkage includes a first arm coupling a part of the mount face with a part of the operation display and a second arm coupling another part of the mount face with another part of the operation display. The operation display moves in the movement range in which the operation display does not enter the opening, does not protrude outward beyond the mount face when the first arm and the second arm support the operation display perpendicularly to an installation face of the image forming apparatus where the image forming apparatus is placed, and does not protrude upward beyond a scanner when the first arm and the second arm support the operation display parallel to the installation face of the image forming apparatus.
