Abstract: A closed subscriber group (CSG) cell allows use of subscribers. To receive the service by the CSG cell, a CSG-ID is notified to a user equipment, but cannot be obtained outside the reach of radio waves from a non-CSG cell. Base stations respectively provided to a CSG cell and a non-CSG cell, and access is made to the CSG cell with the use of a CSG-ID issued when use of the CSG cell is allowed, the base station refers to the notified identification information of a user equipment and then transmits a tracking area update request from the user equipment to a core network. The core network determines whether the user equipment is allowed to use the CSG cell and, if allowed, transmits a signal for assignment of radio resources to the user equipment and the CSG-ID. The user equipment accesses the CSG cell with the CSG-ID.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes an image forming portion, a first release processing portion, and a second release processing portion. The image forming portion includes a storage portion storing developer and forms an image by using the developer stored in the storage portion. The first release processing portion releases regulation on removal of a developer storage portion when a storage amount of the developer stored in the storage portion is equal to or smaller than a second threshold smaller than a first threshold. The second release processing portion releases the regulation on the removal of the developer storage portion based on the remaining amount of the developer that is acquired when the storage amount of the developer stored in the storage portion is larger than the second threshold.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a release processing portion, a regulation processing portion, and a second restriction processing portion. The release processing portion releases regulation on removal of a developer storage portion when a storage amount of developer stored in an image forming portion is equal to or smaller than a second threshold smaller than a first threshold. The regulation processing portion regulates removal of the developer storage portion when the storage amount of the developer stored in the image forming portion is larger than the second threshold and removal of the developer storage portion has not been regulated. The second restriction processing portion imposes restriction on processing of the regulation processing portion when the regulation on the removal of the developer storage portion is released and a restriction condition is satisfied.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes an image forming portion, a supply processing portion, and a second release processing portion. The image forming portion includes a storing portion that stores developer, and forms an image by using the developer stored in the storing portion. The supply processing portion supplies the developer to the storing portion from a developer storing portion attached to an attachment portion, when a storage amount of the developer in the storing portion is less than or equal to a first threshold. The second release processing portion releases regulation on a removal of the developer storing portion when an expected amount of developer to be used by a user is greater than or equal to a reference value that is determined based on a remaining amount of the developer in the developer storing portion attached to the attachment portion.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a control portion, a switching processing portion, a determination processing portion, and a release processing portion. The control portion includes a detection portion that detects abnormality regarding an image forming portion, and controls the image forming portion. When the abnormality detected by the detection portion is a first abnormality, the switching processing portion switches an operation mode of the image forming apparatus from a normal mode to a stop mode in which the control portion is stopped. When a specific operation is performed in a case where the operation mode is the stop mode, the determination processing portion determines whether or not a second abnormality is continued, based on a record result of detection of the abnormality. When it is determined that the second abnormality is continued, the release processing portion releases regulation on a removal of a developer storing portion.

Abstract: A paper conveyance device includes a roller, paper feed sensor, registration sensor, and controller. At a first time point at which specified time from start of draw of paper by the roller to arrival of the paper at the registration sensor has passed, when a detection result by the registration sensor is absence of the paper and a detection result by the paper feed sensor is presence of the paper, and the detection result by the paper feed sensor is the absence at a second time point at which standby time has passed from the first time point, the controller sets a safe paper feed mode in which the draw of the paper by the roller is started at a delay time point at which delay time has passed since a switching time point at which the detection result by the registration roller is switched from the presence to absence.
