  • Patent number: 10983735
    Abstract: A management apparatus includes a predicting unit and a notifying unit. The predicting unit acquires progress information indicating progress of an image forming process from an image forming device that forms a three-dimensional image, and predicts a completion time of the image forming process. The notifying unit provides a notification about the completion time predicted by the predicting unit to a device owned by a user using the image forming device. The predicting unit re-predicts the completion time as the image forming process progresses. In a case where a difference between a previously-notified completion time and a newly-predicted completion time reaches a predetermined extent, the notifying unit provides a notification about the newly-predicted completion time.
