A document reading apparatus having a display unit and a placement section on which plural documents is to be placed includes a conveyance unit and a reading unit. The conveyance unit conveys a document placed on the placement section. The reading unit reads a document conveyed by the conveyance unit and generates image data. Based on at least a reading mode being set on the document reading apparatus of reading a plurality of documents of a plurality of different sizes in a single job by the reading unit, first prompting information that prompts placement of the plurality of documents at a center of the placement section in a direction perpendicular to a document conveyance direction in which the conveyance unit conveys the plurality of documents is displayed on the display unit.

An image reading apparatus which is capable of preventing occurrence of a paper jam and poor stacking during conveyance of originals. The image reading apparatus sets a type of an original, conveys the original based on the set type of the original, and reads an image on the conveyed original. An original detecting sensor detects placement of the original on an original tray. An LCD touch panel displays an object for setting a type of the original in response to the detection by the original detecting sensor.

An image forming apparatus includes a printing unit that performs printing based on a job, a setting unit that sets a setting specifying whether billing is to be performed for printing performed by the printing unit, and a control unit that, in a case where printing performed by the printing unit is interrupted due to occurrence of a job interruption event, if a setting specifying that billing is not to be performed is set by the setting unit, executes cancellation of the job when a predetermined time period elapses without a cause of the interruption being cleared and, if a setting specifying that billing is to be performed is set by the setting unit, does not execute the cancellation.

An image processing apparatus capable of, even both of reservation printing and pre-printing paper sheet confirmation are set for one print job, preventing a printing process from substantially being halted due to a confliction between these two settings. The image processing apparatus is capable of generating a print job, a time request and a print medium confirmation request. The image processing apparatus performs: a first process, which exclusively generates one of the time request and the print medium confirmation request, generates the print job including the generated one request, and performs a process corresponding to the generated one request prior to printing based on the print job; or a second process, which generates the time request and the print medium confirmation request, generates both of the two request, and exclusively performs one of the two requests prior to printing based on the print job.

An image reading apparatus includes an original stacking portion, an original feeding portion, an image reading portion, a shading operation portion, and a receiving portion. The shading operation portion acquires a shading correction value by causing the image reading portion to read a white reference member with a predetermined reading resolution when an original is stacked on the original stacking portion. When a resolution change instruction is received before reading of the original is started, depending on the resolution change instruction, the shading operation portion acquires a shading correction value by causing again the image reading portion to read the white reference member with a changed reading resolution.

An image forming apparatus includes a receiving unit, a storage unit, a login state determination unit, and a control unit. The receiving unit receives a facsimile-received document via a network. The storage unit stores the facsimile-received document received by the receiving unit in a reception box. The login state determination unit determines whether a user to be charged is logged in, a user who does not need to be charged is logged in, or no user is logged in. The control unit controls the storage unit to store the facsimile-received document in the reception box instead of outputting the facsimile-received document when the receiving unit receives the facsimile-received document and if the login state determination unit determines that no user is logged in or a user to be charged is logged in.

A printing system includes a printing apparatus that prints an image on a sheet, a sheet processor that executes sheet processing, and a sheet detection sensor that detects a sheet on which the sheet processing is performed not in association with the printing of an image, where the printing of an image is restricted in response to detection of a sheet by the sheet detection sensor.

A printing apparatus is provided to prevent, when an error has occurred while a print job is being executed, information leakage without significantly reducing usability. A printing apparatus capable of storing a plurality of print jobs identifies, when the error has occurred while the print job is being executed, another print job which is printable, among the stored other print jobs. The printing apparatus cancels the print job, which is being executed when the error has occurred and the identified print job, based on a predetermined time which has elapsed in a state where an error is occurring.

Printing apparatus, method for controlling printing apparatus to perform cancelling a print job based on a lapse of predetermined time

An image forming apparatus forms an image on a printing medium based on a print job, and includes at least one memory that stores a set of instructions, and at least one processor that executes the instructions. The instructions, when executed, cause the image forming apparatus to perform operations including performing control so that in a case where a print job associated with a user charged by using a charging device is printed, an already-printed job for which printing has been completed is deleted after the printing has been completed, and performing control so that in a case where a print job associated with a user not charged by using the charging device is printed, the already-printed job for which printing has been completed is not deleted after the printing has been completed.

The present disclosure is directed to, during execution of a copy job for which a binding process setting is not set, detecting that a conveyed document is bound and allowing a user to perform the binding process setting before the copy job is executed again. A control method for controlling an image forming apparatus includes conveying a document placed on a document tray, reading an image on the conveyed document, printing the read image on a sheet, and binding the sheet on which the image is printed, and further includes detecting that the conveyed document is a bound document, according to the detection, suspending the conveyance of the document, and displaying a screen for prompting a user to start reading of the document of which the conveyance is suspended, wherein the screen is a screen capable of receiving a setting of a binding process to be executed.

Printing apparatus which performs efficient cancellation of print job

A sheet processing apparatus includes a stapler that executes a stapling process on sheets set in a sheet insertion opening by a user, and a sheet detecting sensor that detects the sheets set in the sheet insertion opening. The sheet processing apparatus displays a setting screen for setting a time until the staple process is executed, and causes the stapler to execute the stapling process according to elapse of the set time after the sheet detecting sensor detects the sheets.
