  • Image forming apparatus that automatically prompts migration of box between image forming apparatuses at appropriate timing
    Patent number: 9355342
    Abstract: Provided is an image forming apparatus. The image forming apparatus includes a box configured to store data, a usage amount count unit, a threshold value storage unit, a comparison unit, a box search unit, a user interface unit, and a box migration unit. The usage amount count unit counts a usage amount for a user identification. The threshold value storage unit stores a threshold value associated with the usage amount. The comparison unit determines whether or not the usage amount is equal to or larger than the threshold value. The box search unit acquires, based on the usage amount and threshold, box identification information on the box corresponding to the user identification within another image forming apparatus. The box migration unit migrates data on the box within the other image forming apparatus to the box corresponding to the user identification within the image forming apparatus.

  • Image forming system for managing logs
    Patent number: 9092261
    Abstract: An image forming system includes a log management unit and an operation state image generation unit. The log management unit manages a job log indicating a history of a job executed by an image forming apparatus, a log image indicating a history of an output image serving as an output target of the image forming apparatus for the job, and an operation log indicating a history of an operation input to an operation unit in the image forming apparatus for the job. The operation state image generation unit generates an operation state image indicating which of a plurality of operable items in the operation unit is operated in an operation included in the operation log.
