Abstract: A DC power supply and distribution system is obtained that improves power distribution efficiency at a low-load factor while suppressing overall upsizing. The DC power supply and distribution system includes a main AC/DC converter and an auxiliary AC/DC converter connected in parallel to the main AC/DC converter and having a rated power capacity smaller than that of the main AC/DC converter, wherein when the absolute value of the DC output power is smaller than the absolute value of a threshold power set smaller than the rated power capacity of the auxiliary AC/DC converter, a first switching command for switching from the first operation mode to the second operation mode is generated for a power conversion unit.

Abstract: In a consumables ordering system, an image forming apparatus notifies a management system about a consumable whose remaining quantity is under a specific threshold. When a consumable whose remaining quantity is under the threshold is autonomously notified from the image forming apparatus, the management system checks the consumable whose remaining quantity is under the threshold in a specific image forming apparatus other than an autonomously notifying apparatus (S122), and notifies the autonomously notifying apparatus about the consumable autonomously notified from the autonomously notifying apparatus, and ordering information as information necessary for placing an order for the consumable checked in S122 (S129). The autonomously notifying apparatus displays the ordering information notified from the management system, and places an order for the consumable for which the ordering information is displayed in response to an instruction.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus is configured to, in a period from returning from an energy-saving mode to determining to change to the energy-saving mode, capture screenshot data every time the first controller circuit detects input from a user into the input device, the screenshot data being data of a screen displayed on the first display device, determine an error code, the error code identifying an error that occurred in the period, and generate a screenshot log and store the screenshot log in the first storage device, the screenshot log including a series of the screenshot data in the period and the error code identifying the error that occurred in the period, receive the screenshot log send request from the error solution information provider apparatus, and then send the screenshot log stored in the first storage device to the error solution information provider apparatus.

Abstract: A server apparatus includes a controller circuit configured to obtain a use time period and a use amount of each of multiple client apparatuses, calculate a use percentage of each of the multiple client apparatuses of each use time period on a basis of the use amount, determine a recommended time period on a basis of the use percentage of each of the multiple client apparatuses, the recommended time period being a time period in which a largest number of client apparatuses are to be maintained, and specify the largest number of client apparatuses to be maintained during the recommended time period.

Abstract: Provided is a mobile terminal device that can prevent print data from being erased due to a battery exhaustion. This mobile terminal device have a battery as a power source, constructs print data (PD) from print target data stored in a volatile storage part to transmit to an image forming apparatus (IFA), and causes the IFA to execute printing of the PD. The mobile terminal device includes a non-volatile storage part, a battery residual amount detection part configured to detect a residual amount of the battery, and a print allowance/disallowance determination part configured to store, pursuant to a determination thereof, the PD in the non-volatile storage prior to a transmission of the print data based on the residual amount of the battery detected by the battery residual amount detection part, that no power required for transmitting the PD is ensured.
