A moving image reproduction apparatus for reproducing a moving image for explaining a work including a plurality of steps, includes: a reproducer that reproduces the moving image; a progress display that displays an indicator indicating a progress of reproduction of the moving image and a position on the indicator where the moving image is being currently reproduced; and a candidate display that displays a candidate image corresponding to at least one jump destination included in the moving image when a predetermined operation is performed on the indicator.

Moving image reproduction apparatus, candidate jump destination display method, and computer program

A device for reproducing guidance on a task including a plurality of steps is provided. The device includes an input device with which a user selects from which position of the guidance is to be reproduced; and a player configured to, where a designated step corresponding to the position selected by the user from among the steps is a particular step, jump a playback progress to the position selected to play the guidance, the particular step being an initial step of steps having not yet been performed completely, and, where the designated step is not the particular step, jump the playback progress to a position of the particular step to play the guidance.

Systems, methods, and devices for reproduction and playback of maintenance guidance

An image processing device capable of executing a plurality of jobs that differ in kind, the image processing device includes: a controller that controls execution of an input job; and a detection part that, on the basis of a voice detected by a voice detector, detects that any of a plurality of predetermined target voices has been emitted, wherein in a case where it is detected that the target voice has been emitted during a target setting period corresponding to a job that is being executed, among setting periods that are defined beforehand according to kinds of jobs respectively, the controller stops the execution of the job.

Image processing device, and operation control method thereof

A system for reproducing guidance on a task including a plurality of steps is provided. The system includes a hardware processor; and an output device configured to output an image or audio; wherein the hardware processor determines a completed step of the steps based on a change in state of a target on which the task is to be performed, the completed step being a step which has been completed, and the hardware processor causes the output device to reproduce an unfinished part in a first form where a predetermined condition is not satisfied, and causes the output device to reproduce the unfinished part in a second form different from the first form where the predetermined condition is satisfied, the unfinished part being a part corresponding to an unfinished step which is not determined to have been completed among the steps.

System and method for reproducing guidance, and non-transitory recording medium storing computer readable program

An image processing apparatus includes a display for displaying operational information for executing image processing, an operation unit for giving an input instruction in association with a display region appearing on the display, and a controller for controlling the display in accordance with the input instruction on the operation unit. The controller is configured to determine whether an input instruction of a flick operation is given through the operation unit in association with a prescribed display region appearing on the display. If it is determined that the input instruction of the flick operation is given, the controller is configured to enlarge a range of the prescribed display region in which the input instruction is allowed, and to display the enlarged display region on the display.

Image processing apparatus, method of controlling image processing apparatus, and recording medium

An image forming apparatus, comprises: a receiving part for receiving an email at a predetermined time; a print outputting part for producing a printed output of data contained in the received email; a stop controlling part for temporarily suspending the receiving process by the receiving part or the process to produce the printed output by the print outputting part; a determining part for receiving an input of instruction information specifying a processing to process the received email and determining the processing to process the received email in accordance with the input instruction information while the stop controlling part is temporarily suspending the process; and an email processing part for performing the processing determined by the determining part to process the received email while the process is being temporarily suspended by the stop controlling part or after the temporary suspension by the stop controlling part is cancelled.
