    Abstract: An image forming apparatus is provided on which an application including a first module and a second module is installed. The first module is configured to determine whether to activate the second module based at least on a time set by a user, and activate the second module based on the first module determining to activate the second module. The second module is configured to cause the image forming apparatus to perform printing. In addition, the image forming apparatus includes an activation unit configured to activate the first module without activating the second module, periodically at each elapse of a predetermined time interval. In a case where it is determined that the second module is to be activated before a time when the first module is to be activated next, the first module is configured to set a timing to activate the second module.

    Abstract: An image forming apparatus stores, for an application, a meta file including a setting data version and a setting data compatible version in a storage as information about the application. In a case where setting data of the application is to be imported, an application management unit of the image forming apparatus determines whether to allow import of the setting data as an import target by using a version of the setting data, a setting data version that is stored as the information about the application corresponding to the setting data as the import target, and a setting data compatible version, and determines whether to allow import of the setting data as the import target.

    Abstract: An image processing apparatus according to an embodiment by the present disclosure includes a storage unit for storing a reading size, an identifying unit for identifying the reading size using a sensor, a reading unit for reading an image of a document, and a setting unit for setting the identifying unit to identify the reading size. In case of the identifying unit identifying the size of the document in a state where the setting unit sets the identifying unit to identify the reading size, the reading unit reads the image of the document based on the size identified by the identifying unit. In case of the identifying unit not identifying the size of the document in the state where the setting unit sets the identifying unit to identify the reading size, the reading unit reads the image of the document based on the size stored in the storage unit.

    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a setting unit, a displaying unit, a receiving unit, and a printing unit. The setting unit accepts designation of source information from a user and set the accepted source information in association with an object. The displaying unit displays the object. The receiving unit receives image data from an external apparatus. The printing unit prints an image on a sheet based on the image data received by the receiving unit. Upon selection of the object displayed on the displaying unit, the printing unit prints an image on a sheet based on the image data from among the image data received by the receiving unit, that is received from an external apparatus having source information corresponding to the source information associated with the object.
