An image forming apparatus includes an image forming section, a receiving section, and a controller. The image forming section forms a plurality of images on a plurality of sheets. The receiving section receives a print job including a layout format indicating a layout of the images on the sheets. The controller controls the image forming section based on the print job. Each of the images indicates an image expressed by image data of a single page. The print job includes an instruction to form the images on the sheets according to a plurality of mutually different layout formats.

A non-transitory storage medium stores a plurality of instructions readable by a computer of an information processing apparatus. The plurality of instructions cause the information processing apparatus to display a first setting screen on a user interface of the information processing apparatus as a setting screen without displaying a second setting screen in response to receipt of a first displaying instruction for displaying the setting screen, and display the second setting screen on the user interface instead of the first setting screen in response to receipt a second displaying instruction for displaying the second setting screen through the user interface while the first setting screen is displayed. The first setting screen is a setting screen capable of receiving a print parameter of a first item of a plurality of setting items and incapable of receiving a print parameter of a second item of the plurality of setting items.

Methods and apparatuses receive, into a user interface, an instruction to combine multiple scanned pages into one or more n-up sheets. In response to receiving the instruction to combine multiple scanned pages, a resolution field is output from the user interface. A user-set resolution for the scanned pages on the n-up sheets is received into the resolution field. With this, the scanned pages are scanned at the user-set resolution using a scanner. A processor is used to combine the scanned pages together into the n-up sheets at the user-set resolution of the scanned pages resolution, and the processor outputs the n-up sheets in an electronic file.

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.

An information processing apparatus includes a first display control unit that displays an image on a display unit, a selection unit that selects an operation image from a group of operation images used to receive different operations with respect to the displayed image, depending on a magnification of the displayed image, and a second display control unit that displays the selected operation image on the display unit.

An information processing apparatus is configured to control an operation to determine a type of a printing medium to be printed by a printing unit, determine a type of printing medium indicated by information input by an input unit as the type of the printing medium to be printed, and be capable of executing a measurement mode and a designation mode. In the measurement mode, the type of the printing medium to be printed is determined by using a measurement result and a reference characteristic values set in advance. In the designation mode, the type of the printing medium to be printed is determined without using the measurement result. The information processing apparatus is configured to, even in the designation mode, change the reference characteristic value set in advance for the type of printing medium indicated by the information input by the input unit based on the measurement result.

An image processing apparatus includes a registration unit configured to register a content to be displayed on a display unit of the image processing apparatus, a setting unit configured to make a setting as to whether to display, in accordance with a login to the image processing apparatus, the content registered by the registration unit, and a display control unit configured to control, in a case where the setting unit makes the setting to display, in accordance with the login to the image processing apparatus, the content registered by the registration unit, processing of displaying, on the display unit in accordance with a user login, the content registered by the registration unit.

An information processing apparatus includes: a processor configured to perform communication with another apparatus to receive a change in a function of processing data performed in the other apparatus; cause the change to be reflected in the function of the information processing apparatus; execute a process related to a first function of the information processing apparatus on first data in accordance with an instruction from a user, during a period in which communication with the other apparatus is not performed; and display information for specifying the first data in a case where a change in the first function is received from the other apparatus when communication with the other apparatus is performed after executing the process related to the first function on the first data.

According to one embodiment, an image forming system includes a plurality of image forming apparatuses and an information terminal that communicates with the plurality of image forming apparatuses. The information terminal includes a communication unit and a controller. The communication unit communicates with the image forming apparatus. The controller transmits first information relating to a job to the plurality of image forming apparatuses. The controller outputs certification information corresponding to the first information. When transmission start information of the job is received from the image forming apparatus, the controller instructs the image forming apparatus to execute the job. The image forming apparatus includes an input device, a communication unit, a storage unit, and a controller. The input device receives an input. The communication unit communicates with the information terminal. The storage unit stores data. After the first information is received, the controller transmits transmission start information of the job to the information terminal which is a transmission source of the first information. When the certification information is input by the input device, the controller executes the job corresponding to the certification information.

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.
