  • Patent number: 10708452
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus improved in convenience of reusing executed jobs. A selection screen for selecting between jobs for image processing, and a configuration screen for selecting setting values for a selected job are displayed on a display. A combination of setting values of setting items for an executed job are accumulated in an HDD in association with a job selected on the selection screen when executing the job. A custom job displayed on the selection screen is registered together with setting values configured by a user. The accumulated executed jobs are selectively displayed on the selection screen, together with application jobs associated with the image processing functions, and registered custom jobs configured by the user. The executed jobs are displayed on the selection screen such that jobs executed by selecting the application job and jobs executed by selecting the custom job are discernible.
