An image forming apparatus is disclosed. The image forming apparatus includes a detecting unit which detects the number of manuscript sheets; a calculating unit which calculates the anticipated number of sheets of recording media based on the detected number of sheets; a determining unit which determines whether the anticipated number of sheets calculated exceeds the predetermined number of sheets; and a bookbinding unit which binds multiple recording media, wherein the calculating unit calculates the anticipated number of sheets, further including a cover arranged on the outside of the multiple recording media which are stacked in an overlapping manner, and wherein the bookbinding unit binds multiple recording media without arranging the cover on the outside of the multiple recording media when an image is not formed on the cover if the determining unit determines that the anticipated number of sheets exceeds the predetermined number of sheets.

In an image forming apparatus, setting information is stored in a storage part for a function which the image forming apparatus operates based on the setting information. An acquisition request of common setting information is sent to an information processing apparatus including the common setting information in common with multiple of the image forming apparatuses connected through a network. The common setting information is received from the information processing apparatus. The common setting information received by the receiving part is set in the setting information stored in the storage part.

A loading device includes a disposing unit to dispose the recording media, and a detector to detect the disposed recording media. The disposing unit includes a loading member on which the recording media are loaded, a pair of guide members movable in width directions of the recording media that are mounted on the loading member, and a guide driver to move the guide members. The end detector detects positions at which the guide members are in contact with the recording media as the ends of the recording media. The guide driver further moves the guide members in the width direction to cause the recording media to form flexures, subsequently moves the guide members to separate from the recording media, and then moves the guide members to be in contact with the recording media again.

An image forming apparatus includes a printing device to print, on a recording medium, a colorimetric pattern including a plurality of colorimetric patches; an imaging device; a conveyor to convey the recording medium in a conveyance direction; and circuitry. The circuitry causes the printing device to form a plurality of marker patterns on a side of the colorimetric pattern and at predetermined intervals in the conveyance direction so that one of the marker patterns is downstream from a first row of the colorimetric patches in the conveyance direction; causes the conveyor to convey the recording medium to position the colorimetric pattern at a reading position by the imaging device based on a distance between the plurality of marker patterns and the colorimetric pattern in the conveyance direction; and causes the imaging device to read the colorimetric pattern on the recording medium.

A system for controlling one or more control target units in a predetermined space includes a first control rule management unit managing heat source existence information and a control item of the control target unit associating with each other, a second control rule management unit managing position information indicating a position of the area and adjustment information associating with each other, a receiver receiving detection data indicating a temperature, a first generator generating heat source data including heat source existence information, a second generator obtaining a control item of the control target using the heat source existence information from the first control rule management unit, obtaining adjustment information from the second control rule management unit, and generating control data indicating a modified control item, and a transmitter transferring the control data generated by the second generator to one or more apparatuses each controlling the control target unit.
摘要:
An image processing apparatus which displays a thumbnail image of a stored image is disclosed. When a thumbnail image of a stored image is displayed, it is determined whether the stored image is open or secret by using an attribute attached to the stored image. When the stored image is open, the thumbnail image of the stored image is displayed, and when the stored image is secret, a dummy thumbnail image is displayed.
