  • Patent number: 10805485
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes: a sheet tray; a sheet detection sensor that detects that a sheet is placed on the sheet tray; a display unit; and a control unit. In a case where the sheet detection sensor detects the sheet on the sheet tray, the control unit determines whether or not to cause the display unit to display a confirmation screen for sheet setting. In a case where a predetermined inappropriate confirmation condition is satisfied, the control unit causes the display unit not to display the confirmation screen. In a case where the inappropriate confirmation condition is not satisfied, the control unit causes the display unit to display the confirmation screen.

  • Patent number: 10630850
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes: a document reading unit 110 allowing input of image data generated from a read document, a paper feed unit 140 containing recording paper, an image forming unit 120 forming an image on the recording paper based on the image data, and a touch-panel display 132 displaying a preview image representing a state of image formation. The touch-panel display displays a preview image in a designated orientation for a document of a prescribed size, and displays a preview image in accordance with size and orientation of recording paper fed from the paper feed unit, for a document not of the prescribed size. Thus, for documents of a prescribed size, preview images in a prescribed orientation can be displayed regardless of the direction of arrangement of the recording paper, and easier confirmation of expected finish of the formed image becomes possible.

  • Publication number: 20200120222
    Abstract: An information processing system according to the present disclosure has, for example, a copy function. In the copy function, a plurality of configuration screens including a paper selection screen are displayed one at a time in a predetermined order as a configuration target screen in a main area on a display surface of a display. In a case where a subsequent configuration screen is present when any configuration screen is displayed as the configuration target screen in the main area, a left end part of the subsequent configuration screen is displayed in a marginal part on a right side of the main area. Furthermore, in a case where configuration on the current configuration target screen is complete by a user operation, an appropriate modification is made on the left end part of the subsequent configuration screen. Accordingly, an operability of an information processing system having the copy function is improved.
