摘要:
In an image forming apparatus, first in a printing delay process, it is determined whether or not a specific mode is set. When it is determined that a specific mode is set, printing is inhibited until images to be printed are accumulated in a memory, and whether or not originals are mixed originals (of assorted sizes) is detected. If it is determined that originals are mixed ones, start of printing is inhibited. Since printing cannot be executed when a specific mode in which mixed originals cannot be handled is set, an image forming apparatus capable of automatically handling mixed originals can be provided.

An image forming apparatus stores a plurality of jobs. When a process for a job is temporarily stopped due to any trouble of the apparatus or interruption, the job is not automatically resumed if an image reader and a printer operate for the same job. If the image reader and the printer operate for different jobs, only the printing operation is automatically resumed. In this case, the reading operation of the image reader is not automatically resumed.

An image forming apparatus that prints and edits a document includes a user identification portion, a print management portion that records print management information indicating a user who performs abort operation of printing, an edit management portion that records edit management information, a determination portion that determines, based on the print management information, whether or not the user is a print suspended operator who has performed the abort operation previously, a page extraction portion that, when the print suspended operator performs reprinting operation for giving instructions to print the document that has been updated, extracts pages of the document which were printed successfully when printing of the document was suspended and have been updated thereafter, and a print controller that controls the image forming apparatus such that the image forming apparatus prints at least unprinted pages of the document and the pages extracted by the page extraction portion.

An image processing apparatus comprises: a display that displays a first screen including one or more than one first key for setting a mode to execute a function of the apparatus, and then, if one of the first keys is pressed, displays a second screen including one or more than one second key, which is a lower-class screen under the pressed first key; and a customizing portion that hides at least one of the first and the second keys on the first screen, according to a user operation, and wherein if a user changes to non-display, the setting of at least one of the first keys on the first screen, while there exists a second key preliminarily prohibited from being hidden, on the second screen that is a lower-class screen under the first key to be hidden according to the changed setting, the customizing portion doesn't hide the first key.

摘要:
A maximum acceptable number (max.sub.-- req.sub.-- num(i)) is set for each transmission device (source of request) (i) which transmits image data. If it is determined that the maximum acceptable number is set for a source of request of a job, determination is made as to whether or not the number of currently accepted jobs from the source of request (current.sub.-- req.sub.-- num(i)) is less than the maximum acceptable number. If so, determination is made as to whether or not the number of jobs exceeds the maximum acceptable number which is the limit of acceptance of a memory in an image forming apparatus, if a currently requested job is accepted. If not exceeds, "acceptable" is given to the source of request. If exceeds, or if the number of currently accepted jobs from the source of request reaches the maximum acceptable number, "not acceptable" is transmitted to the source of request. Accordingly, an image forming apparatus is provided in which image data from a specific transmission device is accepted in preference to data from other transmission device when an image according to image data from a plurality of transmission devices is formed.

Each of a plurality of image processing devices (MFPs) included in an image processing system which includes a storage as well. (1) When the user requests processing a job, (2) the job data is stored in the storage. (3) Each MFP confirms that there is an unprocessed job to be executed, and (4) judges whether the own device can process the job. (5) MFPs that have judged that the own device can process the job stores information of the own device into the storage, and (6) check information stored by other MFPs. (7) One of the MFPs judges that the own device is the most suitable MFP, (11) obtains the job data, and (12) processes the job.
摘要:
A document administration system includes document storing apparatuses and a server connected via a network. Each of the document storing apparatuses includes plural boxes for storing information. The server includes an output request receiving portion for receiving an output request on a document stored in one of the document storing apparatuses; and an output destination selecting portion for selecting one of the document storing apparatuses for outputting the document corresponding to the output request. A discriminating portion of the server discriminates whether the selected document storing apparatuses coincides with the document storing apparatuses in which the document is stored. If so, a controller of the server makes the selected document storing apparatus output the document. If not, the controller obtains the document from the document storing apparatus in which the document is stored and transmits the obtained document to the selected document storing apparatuses to output the document.
