The placement section includes a placement surface sloping downward from a back side toward a front side, the placement surface on which the communication object is placed. A step, forming a gap between the placement surface and the communication object, is disposed in a lower end portion of the placement surface.

Abstract: An image display device includes a display that displays an executable function, an acceptor that accepts an input of a function to be executed and a setting selectable for the function, a storage that stores history information, the history information being a series of processing details associating the function to be executed based on the input with a setting used when the function is executed, and a controller that causes the display to display a batch button summarizing the series of processing details when the series of processing details satisfies a predetermined execution condition.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a storage that stores operation explanation information for explaining task contents to be performed on the information processing apparatus, an operation explanation display controller that displays operation explanation information related to a specific task to be performed on the information processing apparatus, a task information acquirer that acquires information about a task performed on the information processing apparatus when the operation explanation information is displayed, an erroneous task determiner that determines that an erroneous task is performed on the information processing apparatus when the acquired information about a task differs from contents information of the specific task indicated in the displayed operation explanation information, and a warning processor that notifies warning information indicating that a task different from the specific task indicated in the displayed operation explanation information is performed when it is determi

Abstract: In an operation assistance system, an operation assistance method, and a computer-readable recording medium recording an operation assistance program, each of which assists with making an operation setting of an image forming apparatus by using a mobile communication terminal, the mobile communication terminal wirelessly communicates with the image forming apparatus, and at least two types of setting items among plural types of the setting items for the image forming apparatus are simultaneously set by a single touch operation on an operation screen of the mobile communication terminal.

Abstract: An image processing system is provided with an image forming apparatus and a mobile terminal, and a chatbot is formed of a server (and a call center terminal). A user asks the server or an operator at the call center terminal a question by means of the chatbot; answer data is returned to the mobile terminal from the server or from the call center terminal by the operator; operation setting data accompanying the answer text is transmitted from the mobile terminal to the image forming apparatus; and the transmitted operation setting data is set as the operation setting data in the image forming apparatus.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus has an office direct print function, and when a non-installed font that is not installed in the image forming apparatus is included in application data, a font substitution guidance screen is displayed on a display. A drop-down list that is an operator for selecting a substitute font is provided in the font substitution guidance screen, whereby a user can arbitrarily select a substitute font.
