Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a network interface, an operation panel including a touch panel, and a controller. The controller is configured to provide a mobile input function to a mobile terminal via the network interface. In response to accepting a first operation to the operation panel with a local operation screen not displayed on the touch panel, the controller causes the touch panel to display the local operation screen, and thereafter switches the local operation screen on the touch panel to a standby screen after waiting until a continuous time with no operation to the touch panel exceeds a first threshold time. In response to accepting a second operation to the operation panel with the local operation screen not displayed on the touch panel, the controller causes the touch panel to display the standby screen without waiting for the first threshold time to elapse.

Abstract: A method for producing a skin-covered foamed molded article, including blow-molding a parison of a polypropylene-based resin composition into a skin defining a hollow space, placing thermoplastic resin expanded beads in the hollow space, and heating the expanded beads placed in the hollow space to fuse-bond the expanded beads together, wherein the polypropylene-based resin composition has a tensile elongation at break at 80° C. of 300 to 1,000% and a half-crystallization time at 130° C. of 5 to 50 seconds.
