Abstract: The image forming system includes an image forming apparatus and a communication terminal. When it is detected that an operation is being performed onto an input unit of the image forming apparatus while the image forming apparatus is connected to the communication terminal, the image forming apparatus is configured to perform a first notification to notify the communication terminal that an operation is being performed onto the input unit. When the image forming apparatus performs the first notification, the communication terminal is configured to perform a second notification corresponding to the first notification in the communication terminal.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a controller configured to switch a display mode of a menu screen for setting between a first display mode and a second display mode. On a menu screen of the first display mode, the controller (i) determines as display object function buttons a part of function buttons of a plurality of function buttons used to call up each of detailed settings screens each related to each of a plurality of functions provided in the image forming apparatus, (ii) displays the display object function buttons to be arranged in a row in a predetermined direction, and (iii) changes and displays the display object function buttons according to a scroll operation performed by a user. On a menu screen of the second display mode, the controller displays at least a part of function buttons of the plurality of function buttons to be arranged in a grid-like manner.
