Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a main memory device, an auxiliary storage device, a print request receiving unit, and a print processing unit. The print request receiving unit is configured to (a) receive from an external device a print request that includes the number of printing pages and print image data, (b) select one of the main memory device and the auxiliary storage device as a device to which the print image data is to be written on the basis of the number of printing pages, and (c) write the print image data in the selected main memory device or auxiliary storage device. The print processing unit is configured to read the print image data from the main memory device or the auxiliary storage device and perform a print process based on the print image data.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes an operating mechanism, a storage device, and a control device. The operating mechanism executes a job. The control device functions as a controller. When accepting a request to prepare execution of the job, the controller allows the operating mechanism to prepare the execution of the job to thus generate data for output and allows the storage device to save the data for output. When accepting a request to execute the job, the controller allows the operating mechanism to execute the job based on the data for output.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a nonvolatile memory, a count processing portion, and an execution processing portion. The count processing portion is configured to count, for each cycle of a specific time period, a write count that is a number of times data has been written to the nonvolatile memory. The execution processing portion is configured to execute a specific process when the write count that is counted during the specific time period by the count processing portion reaches a specific count.

Abstract: The image forming apparatus executes a process of generating image data of an alternative image involving a smaller consumption quantity of color material than an image contained in a replacement-object area and then generating replaced image data in which the image data of the replacement-object area has been replaced with the image data of the alternative image, and the control section instructs a printing section to execute color material-saving printing of printing an image based on the replaced image data on a sheet. The alternative image is an image containing information for allowing an image based on the image data of the replacement-object area to be displayed by an information terminal that has read the alternative image.
