Publication number: 20240094967Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a controller configured to provide a mobile input function that enables the image forming apparatus to accept input operations from a mobile terminal via a network interface. After starting to provide the mobile input function, the controller sends display data to the mobile terminal via the network interface, thereby causing the mobile terminal to display an operation screen for operating the image forming apparatus from the mobile terminal. The controller displays a standby screen including a particular operable object on a touch panel when the mobile input function is not provided. When the particular operable object is operated, the controller switches the standby screen to a local operation screen. In response to accepting an operation on the local operation screen, the controller performs a process according to what kind of operation has been accepted on the local operation screen.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 29, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Shun TAKEUCHI, Kosuke MORI, Yuichiro SAKURAGI, Satoshi TANIMOTO
