摘要:
Provided is a pair of arc discharge suppressive terminals electrically communicable with each other by engagement of the terminal pair. At least one of the terminal pair has a final contact site which is in contact with the counterpart terminal at a final stage of disengagement of the terminal pair. At least the final contact site is covered with an arc discharge suppressive layer containing a first metal having a melting point of 1,550° C. or higher. It is preferable that the terminal pair contact with each other at a portion corresponding to a main contact site other than the arc discharge suppressive layer in a completely engaged state where the one of the terminal pair and the counterpart terminal are tightly engaged with each other. Preferably, the main contact site has a surface made of a material having a higher conductivity than the arc discharge suppressive layer. This arrangement effectively suppresses occurrence of arc discharge at a time of disengagement of the terminal pair.

An image forming apparatus according to an embodiment of the invention includes a reading unit, authentication unit, job processing control unit, and output unit. The reading unit sequentially performs reading of low jobs making up a high job. The authentication unit stores a user information table in which user information elements on authorized users are registered and sequentially determines whether each low job is proper or improper by verifying a user information element corresponding to the low job against the user information table to carry out authentication. The job processing control unit controls, if a low job is determined to be improper in the determination, an operation of skipping the low job determined to be improper and sequentially performing the reading and determination on subsequent low jobs. The output unit outputs a low job determined to be proper in the determination.
