A printing apparatus is configured to communicate with a terminal device via a local area network and an external device via the internet. The printing apparatus includes an input interface, a print device, and a controller. The controller is configured to perform: receiving specific image data representing the specific image from the terminal device; determining whether the input of the print instruction is required for printing the specific image; when it is determined that the input of the print instruction is required, transmitting the specific image data to the external device, receiving the print instruction via the input interface, acquiring the specific image data from the external device in response to the receipt of the print instruction, and printing the specific image with the print device.

An information processing apparatus includes an operation unit, a controller unit, and an external device controller, and a management unit. The external device controller is configured to control connection, writing, and reading of an external memory device. The management unit is configured to manage a mount state and unmount state of the external memory device. The mount state is a state in which the external memory device becomes available when the operation unit or the controller unit recognizes the external memory device. The unmount state is a state in which the mount state is released. The management unit is configured to execute an unmount process depending on the mount state when an unmount request of the external memory device is issued.

An image recording apparatus having a recorder, a first driving device, a second driving device, a driving-force transmission device, a sensor, a memory, and a controller to conduct a conveying process and a recording process alternately and repetitively, is provided. In the conveying process, on condition that a rotationally driven amount of the first driving device exceeded a target rotation amount, the controller conducts feedback control on the first driving device to rotate reversely. On condition that the first driving device was rotationally driven reversely under the feedback control, the controller stores a maximum value and a stopping value in the memory, determines a correction value, and determines a post-correction rotation amount based on the target rotation amount and an amount corresponding to the correction value, and in the conveying process, the controller drives the first driving device rotationally by the post-correction rotation amount.

An imaging apparatus includes a storing unit configured to, when recording pieces of image data obtained by an imaging unit on a plurality of recording media, respectively temporarily store the pieces of image data obtained by the imaging unit in a plurality of storage regions corresponding to the plurality of recording media, a recording control unit configured to perform control to respectively record the pieces of image data temporarily stored in the plurality of storage regions on the plurality of recording media corresponding to the plurality of storage regions, and a display control unit configured to perform control to display information indicating a use status of a storage region on a display unit, wherein the display control unit performs control to display information indicating the use status only with respect to one storage region out of the plurality of storage regions.

A universal serial bus (USB) memory that stores image data acquired by reading a document is connectable with an image reader. The image reader includes a storage capacity detector that detects storage capacity capable of storing information in the USB memory at a time point of reading a document, a capacity comparison section that compares size of the image data acquired by reading the document with the storage capacity of the USB memory, a data extractor that extracts the data to be moved to another storage medium from data that has already been stored in the USB memory, and a data mover that moves the data extracted by the data extractor to the other storage medium.

An image forming apparatus includes: a scanner to read a plurality of images of document into a plurality of pieces of image data each representing the image; a memory to store the plurality of pieces of image data in an order of image reading by the scanner; a printer to print, on one or more recording media sheets, the plurality of images according to the plurality of pieces of image data having been stored in the memory, in an order different from an order of image reading by the scanner; and circuitry to: in response to reading of a first image of the plurality of images of document into first image data representing the first image, calculate a remaining number of readable images using the first image data; and display information based on the remaining number of readable images.

A printing system includes: a printing device; and a data processing server. A first controller of the printing device is configured to perform: a reading process to read a reading target to generate image data; a determination process to determine whether to transmit the image data to the data processing server according to at least one of available capacity information and capacity-related information; and a data transmission process to transmit the image data to the data processing server. A second controller of the data processing server is configured to perform: a payment-related process related to a fee payment for printing based on the image data. The first controller is configured to further perform, after the fee payment is completed: an acquisition process to acquire print data corresponding to the image data; and a printing process to form an image corresponding to the print data on a printing medium.

An image forming apparatus includes a housing having a first section and a second section opposite to the first section in a particular direction, a print engine, a user interface disposed at the first section, a memory interface having a plurality of ports including a first port disposed at the first section and a second port disposed at the second section, and a controller. The controller is configured to perform a storage printing process, prior to the storage printing process, set one of the plurality of ports as a dedicated port used in the storage printing process, when the second port is set as the dedicated port, determine whether the second port is in a notified status, and when determining that the second port is in the notified status, cause the user interface to display a notification screen.
