Abstract: An image forming device includes a communicator that receives a series of image data, a timer that measures a reception time of each of the series of image data, and a storage that temporarily stores the image data received before forming an image based on the series of image data. When the communicator receives image data, and subsequently does not receive the next image data within a predetermined reception time, the controller obtains the time difference between the time of the reception end of the series of image data, and the reception time of the image data last received by the communicator, determines that the last received image data may be incomplete image data when the time difference is greater than or equal to a predetermined time, and determines whether to form an image based on the image data stored in the storage according to the determination.

Abstract: If a remote job is complete while a multifunction printer is executing an operator operation job, the multifunction printer performs a voice notification after a series of predetermined processes related to the operator operation job is complete. The voice notification indicates that the remote job is complete.

Abstract: Provided is a printing apparatus in which a printed material of a same page is printed in almost same color tone even in a case where calibration execution conditions are satisfied in executing printing processing and concentration correction information is updated. A decision portion decides, when a calibration execution portion executes calibration in executing print image data generation processing based on print setting information of N-up printing, poster printing and the like, whether print image data of N-up printing, poster printing and the like is generated using concentration correction information before update or concentration correction information after update based on print setting information analyzed by a data analyzing portion. Then, based on the decision results, the print image data generation portion generates print image data of N-up printing, poster printing and the like.

Abstract: A charging processing unit calculates a pre-charged amount of money based on print conditions and charges the calculated pre-charged amount of money to a card through a card reader. A job control unit starts a print job to print until a penultimate page, when pre-charging is finished. Further, when an accumulated amount of money is specified by generating image data of the final page and the accumulated amount of money is smaller than the pre-charged amount of money, the printing is stopped before the final page is printed. The charging processing unit causes an UI control unit to display a message requesting to place the card again. When the card is placed in response to the message and pieces of the card information matches each other, a refunding process is carried out. The job control unit restarts printing the final page after a refunding process.
