An example image forming apparatus may include a display panel, a memory, and a processor connected to the memory and the display panel. The display panel may display a first screen including a highlight indicator and a menu having a menu option displayed in the highlight indicator. Further, the memory may include a screen transition module to receive a selection of the menu option. Further, the screen transition module may perform a screen transition from the first screen to a second screen that displays a submenu option in the highlight indicator. The submenu option is associated with the selected menu option.

An information processing apparatus includes: a data sharing unit configured to cause an application selected as a data output destination to process data which is output by an application which is a data output source; a process-object-data generation control unit configured to generate process object data in one of a first format and a second format based on image data acquired by an image information interface from an image information source; and an application-information display unit configured to display identification images for identifying applications which the data sharing unit can select as the data output destination if the data sharing unit is to process either data of the first format or data of the second format.

A remote user interface (RUI) for a personalization document printer of an instant issuance system is provided. The RUI includes a printer functionality component and a server functionality component. The server functionality component is configured to allow, for example a user to control user authentication to use the printer, control print queues of the printer, control print workflows of the printer, control RUI configuration, control remote access to printer user functions and a print preview displaying an image of the customized personalization document with image data and personalization account data, control storage and rendering of data to be placed on a customized personalization document, lock and unlock access to supplies and/or personalization documents in the personalization document printer, access administrative functions, and provide quality assurance functions.

A display control apparatus includes a touch detection unit that detects a touch operation on a touch panel, a unit setting unit that sets a unit of unit-by-unit image switching, and a switching unit that switches images so that if the unit is a first unit, an image the first unit ahead is displayed based on a predetermined touch-move of moving a touch position for a first distance, and if the unit is a second unit greater than the first unit, an image the second unit ahead is displayed based on the predetermined touch-move for a second distance longer than the first distance. The second distance is shorter than a distance of the predetermined touch-move required to display an image the second unit ahead of a first image when the unit set by the unit setting unit is the first unit.

An electronic apparatus includes an operation unit and a control unit. The control unit performs a guidance image display control, a step bar display control, and a step bar operation detection control. When the touch operation on a given position of the step bar is detected in the step bar operation detection control, the control unit causes the display unit to display the plurality of guidance images corresponding to the process associated with the position where the touch operation has been made, in the guidance image display control.

An image processing apparatus displays, based on detection of a maintenance event, a first maintenance screen including a moving image illustrating a maintenance method corresponding to the maintenance event, and displays a second maintenance screen including the moving image illustrating the maintenance method based on receipt of a display instruction to display the maintenance method in a state where the maintenance event is not detected.

A printing apparatus is disclosed that is suitable for controlling a barred access, with a front port for inserting and expelling tickets, sensor means for reading a ticket introduced into the port, an input/output interface and thermal printing means controlled by an electronic processor including a memory that can contain a script including an instruction to activate the printing means in response to an input signal received from the sensor means or via the interface and an instruction to send an output signal via the interface in response to a signal emitted by sensor means. A computerized central system, arranged outside the printing apparatus for controlling the barred access, is associated with the printing apparatus by means of an initial system configurations that is simplified.

An image processing apparatus includes a display panel, a storage medium, first and second display processing portions, and a function execution processing portion. A plurality of pieces of functional information organized in hierarchical layers are stored in the storage medium. The first display processing portion displays high-order commands in a first display frame, the high-order commands corresponding to the pieces of functional information that belong to a high-order layer. The second display processing portion, when a high-order command has been selected, displays low-order commands in a second display frame, the low-order commands corresponding to the pieces of functional information of a low-order layer that belongs to the high-order command. The function execution processing portion, when the high-order command has been selected and a low-order command has been selected, executes a function corresponding to a specific piece of functional information that is common to the selected commands.

An electronic device includes an operation unit and a controller. In a case of detecting a long-press at an icon arranged on a home screen, the controller allows a display unit to display, at a predetermined position near a display region of the icon, a submenu image for selecting detailed settings for a function associated with the icon. When detecting that a touch operation performed by a user is moved from the icon to the submenu image and then ended at the submenu image, the controller allows the display unit to display a detailed setting screen for setting detailed setting items indicated by the submenu image.

An information processing system according to the present disclosure has, for example, a copy function. In the copy function, a plurality of configuration screens including a paper selection screen are displayed one at a time in a predetermined order as a configuration target screen in a main area on a display surface of a display. In a case where a subsequent configuration screen is present when any configuration screen is displayed as the configuration target screen in the main area, a left end part of the subsequent configuration screen is displayed in a marginal part on a right side of the main area. Furthermore, in a case where configuration on the current configuration target screen is complete by a user operation, an appropriate modification is made on the left end part of the subsequent configuration screen. Accordingly, an operability of an information processing system having the copy function is improved.
