An information processing apparatus includes circuitry configured to: accumulate a document received by FAX in a storage; control output of the accumulated document based on an operation of a user; and set a state of the document to unread in response to the document being accumulated in the storage, and set the state of the document to already read on condition that output of all pages of the document is completed.

An image forming apparatus includes an image scanning device, a printing device, an output tray, and a controller. The image scanning device scans a document image sheet by sheet from a document including plural sheets. The output tray is as an output destination of both the document outputted from the image scanning device and a print sheet outputted from the printing device. The controller is configured to perform a copy operation and causes the printing device to print an image based on the document image in the copy operation. Further, the printing device includes an outlet of the print sheet; and the image scanning device includes an outlet of the document, the outlet of the document outputting the document such that edges of the document and the print sheet in a width direction of the output tray are arranged at positions different from each other.

A document checking apparatus includes an image scanning device, a printing device, an output tray, and a controller. The image scanning device is configured to scan a document image sheet by sheet from a document including plural sheets. The output tray is as an output destination of both the document outputted from the image scanning device and a print sheet outputted from the printing device. The controller is configured to perform checking of the document image, and if an error is detected in the checking of the document image, control the printing device and thereby insert the print sheet as an interleaving sheet immediately before or immediately after a sheet where the error is detected.

An image forming apparatus includes a mounting surface provided on a main body and on which paper is placed; a person detection section provided in the main body; a processor configured to control return from a sleep state of the main body, based on the detection of a person by the person detection section, and perform control such that in a case where there is no paper on the mounting surface when transition to the sleep state, a nearby person approaching the main body is included in a detection target of the person detection section, and a passerby passing near the main body is not included in the detection target, in the sleep state, and in a case where there is a paper on the mounting surface when the transition, the nearby person and the passerby are included in the detection target, in the sleep state; and a notification section that notifies of paper remaining in a case where there is a paper on the mounting surface after the return.

An image forming apparatus includes an image forming unit, an output unit, a light source, and a processor. The image forming unit creates a printed material by forming an image on paper. The output unit outputs the printed material to an output tray. The light source is provided such that lit light is viewable from outside the image forming apparatus. The processor is configured to receive a print job for creating the printed material by the image forming unit, and perform control such that the light source is lit in a first lighting pattern in a case where a printed material of a print job for a single user has been output to the output tray and the light source is lit in a second lighting pattern in a case where printed materials of print jobs for multiple users have been output to the output tray.

Provided is an image reading device includes a document transport device that sequentially transports a plurality of documents one by one, and the image reading device sequentially reads the plurality of documents transported by the document transport device one by one. The image reading device includes a document discharge tray, a document discharge detector that detects whether or not a document of the plurality of documents is discharged to the document discharge tray, a notifier that notifies that the document of the plurality of documents discharged to the document discharge tray is forgotten to take, and a controller that activates the notifier if it is determined that a last document among the plurality of documents is read and the document discharge detector detects that the document of the plurality of documents is discharged to the document discharge tray.

The information processing apparatus includes a display. The information processing apparatus accepts user operations via a GUI (graphical user interface) displayed on the display. When the service ends, the forgotten item notification screen is displayed on the display. In the forgotten item notification screen, a forgotten item reminder unit is provided for reminding a user who left behind a reminder target item, including the property of the user used in connection with the service. An individual reminder section is provided in a forgotten item reminder unit, to give an individual reminder to prevent the occurrence of leaving behind of each reminder target item, for a first-type item for which retrieval cannot be detected and a second-type item for which retrieval can be detected but which has not been retrieved, from among the reminder target items.

A recognition system including: a specifier that specifies a person who approaches an image forming apparatus using predetermined user information; a memory that stores the person specified by the specifier; a recognizer that recognizes at least any of the stored persons as a candidate who carries away a recording medium on which an image is formed on the basis of a user's print job; and a notificator that notifies a message regarding carrying away of the recording medium on which the image is formed to the recognized candidate.

An image forming apparatus including: an image forming portion configured to form an image on a sheet; a plurality of trays on which an insert sheet is to be stacked; a setting unit configured to set, when an insert sheet is not stacked on a first tray specified by a print job among the plurality of trays, to perform an automatic feed changeover for feeding an insert sheet from a second tray on which the insert sheet is stacked among the plurality of trays; and a controller configured to disable, even when it is set to perform the automatic feed changeover, the automatic feed changeover when an insert sheet is not stacked on the first tray at a time of feeding a first insert sheet from a start of the print job.

An image forming apparatus of an internal ejection type in which a sheet ejection space is provided between an image reader and an image former, the image forming apparatus includes: an illuminator provided on a wall surface partitioning the sheet ejection space; a detector that detects a position of a work target enabled to move in pulling-out and storing directions within the sheet ejection space; and a controller that performs on/off control of the illuminator depending on a detection position of the detector, wherein in a case where it is detected that the work target is in a work position for performing human work, the controller performs on/off control of the illuminator to illuminate a work target portion that faces an interior of the sheet ejection space of the work target and is subjected to the human work.
