Abstract: An image forming apparatus for a display that is configured to display at least one of a foreground or a background includes a display control unit and a determining unit. The display control unit configured to cause the display to display, in the foreground, a first screen corresponding to a first input by a user. The display control unit is also configured to cause the display to display, in the background, a second screen corresponding to a home screen of the user. The display control unit is also configured to cause in response to receiving a clear input from the user, the display to display, in the foreground, the second screen and display, in the background, the second screen separately from the second screen displayed in the foreground. The determining unit is configured to determine a first duration that a third screen is displayed in the foreground.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an image processing apparatus includes an image reading device, a storage device, and a control unit. The image reading device reads an image on a sheet. The storage device stores information. The control unit that determines a detection area of an encoded image based on a teacher image which is an image read from a predetermined teacher sheet by the image reading device, records information indicating the detection area in the storage device, detects an encoded image in the detection area among the images read from a sheet to be read after the teacher sheet, and decodes the detected encoded image.
