A display device includes a display, a first motor, an illuminance sensor, and a processor. The display displays information. The first motor changes a direction of a display surface of the display. The processor determines a first direction corresponding to a direction from a human sensor or the display surface to the eyes of the operator based on first sensing data output from the human sensor. The processor controls the first motor so that a normal direction of the display surface is the first direction when an illuminance of light incident from the first direction included in second sensing data output from the illuminance sensor is less than a first threshold. The processor controls the first motor so that the normal direction is a second direction different from the first direction when the illuminance of light incident from the first direction is the first threshold or more.

A control device includes: a receiving unit that receives a request for processing; and a control unit that, in a case where the receiving unit receives a plurality of requests for processing from a plurality of places, controls a traveling route of a processing apparatus based on traveling time taken for the processing apparatus to travel to the plurality of places and processing time taken for the processing apparatus to finish the processing after traveling.

An object is to use a post processing apparatus effectively and to shorten execution waiting time of a print job of a user due to moving of a self-traveling post processing apparatus. In an image forming system including a self-traveling post processing apparatus which separably connects with each of a plurality of image forming apparatuses, in a case of having received a print job which is executed by any of the plurality of image forming apparatuses and performs the post processing by the post processing apparatus, the post processing apparatus is made to self-travel by a traveling section such that the post processing apparatus moves toward an image forming apparatus which has received a print job which performs post processing.

An apparatus includes multiple image processing units configured to execute image processing on input data, which are connected in serial, and include two or more image processing units having the same image processing function. The image processing units include a transfer unit configured to transfer input first data to a next image processing unit without changing the data, and an image processor configured to execute image processing on the first data to output second data. At least one of the image processing units transfers the first data to the next image processing unit without changing the first data when the first data is input, and also outputs the second data.

An image forming system capable of executing a print job including a first job and a second job, the image forming system includes: an image forming apparatus configured to print an image on a sheet based on the first job, and thereafter, print an image on a sheet based on the second job; a sheet conveyance apparatus configured to insert the sheet that has been printed by the first job into the sheet that has been printed by the second job; an input unit configured to be used to input a time period in which execution of user operation related to the sheet conveyance apparatus is possible; and a control unit configured to print the job so as to finish the first job within the time period that has been input by the input unit.

In one example of the disclosure, a first area of an image to be printed at a first gloss level is identified. A second area of the image to be printed at a lesser second gloss level is identified. Printing of the image is caused in a gloss-varying printmode that applies a pretreatment fluid to a media where the second area is to be printed, and not where the first area is to be printed, and applies a colorant or colorants to the media where the first and second areas are to be printed.

A communication portion receives object data corresponding to an object. A processor receives a record including single object data and object names from an external device. The processor first stores the record and object names and first selects the object name having a predetermined configuration. The processor second selects, as at least two selected object data, at least two of the single object data, from the plurality of single object data included in the record, based on the configuration of the object name selected by the first selecting. The processor generates the combined object data that includes the at least two selected object data selected by the second selecting, as at least two setting object data. The processor second stores the generated combined object data. The processor prints a print image on the print medium, using the printing mechanism, based on the combined object data.
