Abstract: An image forming device comprises a printer having a color mode and a monochromatic mode and a display unit which displays an operation screen. The image forming device holds identification information of a division to which a user belongs, the identification information being input by the user, in a management mode to manage the number of pages printed in a color mode by the printer for each division to which each user belongs. In a case where the operation mode of the printer is changed to the color mode, the image forming device displays the operation screen to accept a printing request in the color mode, when the identification information is held, and displays an input guidance to urge that the identification information of the division to which the user belongs be input, when the identification information is not held.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus according to an aspect of this invention comprises an image processing unit which processes an image, a managing unit which manages history information about the image processing, and an output unit which outputs the history information of a general-purpose format.

Abstract: An image-forming-job managing apparatus includes a communication section which executes communication with at least one second image-forming apparatus connected thereto via a communication line, and a job storage which sequentially stores image-forming jobs issued from a terminal. Upon receiving a request for displaying the image-forming jobs stored in the job storage, the image-forming-job managing apparatus displays, on a display, information contained in the image-forming jobs. Upon receiving a request for changing an output destination of one of the image-forming jobs stored in the job storage, the image-forming-job managing apparatus extracts the one of the image-forming jobs, and transfers it, via the communication section, to the second image-forming apparatus designated as the output destination.
