  • Patent number: 11625200
    Abstract: An information processing device includes an extraction unit and a confirmation unit. The extraction unit extracts a parameter different from an initial setting from among information about a combination of parameters related to a formation of an image, the information being saved in an image forming device to be operated. The confirmation unit presents the extracted parameter to a user, and prompts the user to confirm a desire to change.
