Abstract: A remote maintenance system includes: one or more image forming apparatuses; a server; and a terminal, the one or more image forming apparatuses each notify, when the image forming apparatus itself executes printing, the server of print information, the print information at least including print start time, print end time, and the number of printed sheets, the server stores, when being notified of the print information, the print information in a management database, analyzes a usage status of the one or more image forming apparatuses based on the print information, and stores the analysis result in the management database, and acquires the analysis result of the usage status of the image forming apparatus to be maintained at the time of scheduled maintenance and failure of any of the one or more image forming apparatuses, attaches the analysis result to the notification, and sends the notification to the terminal.

Abstract: An image forming system includes an image forming apparatus and a server. The image forming apparatus transmits to the server image data representing an image. The image is read by the reading device from the recording medium on which the print device prints the image, in response to an instruction to print at the origin of the print area. The server acquires, from the image data transmitted from the image forming apparatus, a printing-complete reference position, as a position where the recording-medium origin is made a reference, in a location printed on the recording medium by the image forming apparatus in response to an instruction to execute printing at the print-area origin, and acquires the displacement as a difference between the acquired printing-complete reference position and the print reference position stored in the storage device.

Abstract: A server, image forming apparatus, image forming system, or monitoring method allows an administrator an intuitive, visual grasp of the status of an image forming apparatus and helps reduce the load on network communication. The server has a template code/character data acquirer that acquires, from an image forming apparatus having a display displaying a panel image, a template code corresponding to a template image included in the panel image and character data included in the panel image; and a panel image generator that reads, from a storage storing a template image, the template image corresponding to the template code and that generates the panel image by combining together the template image read and the character data acquired from the image forming apparatus.
