Abstract: Provided is a document management system that appropriately performs management of paper documents even in a case where there is a change in the storage conditions and the like of paper documents. A server causes an image forming apparatus to output a management label. A worker enters items necessary for management in this management label, after which the label is attached to a package including paper documents (documents) that is a target of management, and the package is stored in this state. A portable terminal that can capture an image of the management label on the package in a stored state is used. The portable terminal and the image forming apparatus may perform an exchange of data via a network, short distance communication, or the like. This data includes image data (imaging data) acquired by capturing an image of the management label, and storage location information indicating the storage location of the package.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a use determination processing portion, a first acquisition processing portion, and a time notification processing portion. The use determination processing portion determines whether or not its associated information processing apparatus is in use. The first acquisition processing portion, when a use request of its associated information processing apparatus is received in a state where the use determination processing portion has determined that its associated information processing apparatus is in use, acquires a planned use time of its associated information processing apparatus via an input operation performed on an operation portion of its associated information processing apparatus. The time notification processing portion notifies a first information processing apparatus that is a transmission source of the use request, of the planned use time acquired by the first acquisition processing portion.

Abstract: Provided is an image forming apparatus that easily performs the work of adjustment so that folding lines do not become an obstacle when looking at an image that is formed on paper after the paper has been folded. A printing-data-input unit that printing data for printing the image is inputted to. A fold-setting unit recognizes a folding pattern, and positions of folding lines on the paper that are used in that folding pattern. A positional-relationship-adjusting unit adjusts at least one of the positions of the folding lines and the printing data so that portions in the image that are not blank and the folding lines do not overlap on the paper. An output unit, after adjustment by the positional-relationship-adjusting unit, forms an image on the paper, and outputs the paper.

Abstract: The detection section is configured to detect first and second DC voltages output. The voltage adjustment section is configured to adjust each of first and second setting values to cause a corresponding one of the first and second DC voltages detected by the detection section to fall within an allowable voltage range in which a desired supply voltage to each of a sub CPU and a main CPU is set as a center value, and, write the adjusted first and second setting values in a memory as the first and second setting values at the time of re-activation of the circuit board.

Abstract: A voltage regulator includes an integrated circuit, a first power supply circuit, and a second power supply circuit. The integrated circuit includes a first core through which passage of current is continued in a power-saving mode, and a second core through which passage of current is halted in the power-saving mode. A determination unit determines whether operational status of the second core is a predetermined state that increases consumed current of the second core. A detecting unit detects a second DC voltage output from the second power supply circuit when the determination unit determines the operational status of the second core to be the predetermined state. A voltage adjusting unit adjusts the second DC voltage such that difference in voltage between the detected second DC voltage and a required voltage of the second core is equal to or less than a predetermined specified voltage difference.
