An information processing system includes a portable sheet having a first face and a second face, a sensing unit that senses a physical quantity acting on the first face and a physical quantity acting on the second face, and a controller that executes a control based on a combination of physical quantities, the combination of physical quantities being a combination of the sensed physical quantity acting on the first face and the sensed physical quantity acting on the second face.

Information processing system

An image forming apparatus includes an image holding body that holds an image to be transferred to a recording material; a developing unit that causes a mixture, in which plural kinds of developers are mixed, to adhere to the image holding body and that forms an image on the image holding body; a transfer unit that transfers an image formed on the image holding body to a recording material; and a change portion that changes a transfer condition that is a condition under which the transfer unit performs transfer so that a ratio of the plural kinds of developers in the image to be transferred to a recording material becomes close to a predetermined ratio.

Image forming apparatus

An image forming system includes a first image forming apparatus, a second image forming apparatus, a determining unit, and a display unit. The first image forming apparatus includes a first image forming unit that forms an image with a first developer of a process color. The second image forming apparatus includes a second image forming unit that includes a second developer and that forms an image with the second developer. The second developer has characteristics different from characteristics of the first developer on a medium. The determining unit determines, on the basis of image formation conditions designated by a user, a printing order in which an image formed with the first developer and an image formed with a second developer are printed on one medium, and determines a sequence in which the image forming apparatuses perform image formation on the basis of the determined printing order. The display unit displays the sequence determined by the determining unit.

Image forming system for reducing wrong printing order

An information processing system includes a sheet-shaped apparatus placed in a specific place, the sheet-shaped apparatus including a sensor built in the sheet-shaped apparatus to sense information indicating whether a user is present over the place in which the sheet-shaped apparatus is placed, an acquiring unit that acquires environmental information about the place, and a providing unit that provides information based on the information sensed by the sensor and on the environmental information acquired by the acquiring unit.

A processing system includes a sheet-shaped device, a determination unit, and a controller. The sheet-shaped device is attachable to a seat in an area from a seat surface of the seat to a surface of a backrest of the seat. The sheet-shaped device includes a sensor that detects whether a user is sitting on the seat surface and that detects whether the user is leaning against the surface of the backrest. The determination unit determines a type of sitting posture of the user by using a signal from the sensor. The controller controls a control target in accordance with the determined type of sitting posture.

Processing system

An information processing system includes: a sheet that is usable in a use mode which is any one of an underlay mode and a cover mode; an accumulation unit that accumulates relevant information related to when the sheet is used in association with the use mode of the sheet when being used; and a presentation unit that presents a result of analysis of the information accumulated in the accumulation unit, in consideration of the use mode.

An image forming system includes a first image forming apparatus that includes a first imaging section used to form an image using a colored first developer, a second image forming apparatus that includes a second imaging section used to form the image using a second developer, which a color of the first developer is capable of penetrating, in a case of being laminated on the first developer on a medium, and a third imaging section used to form the image using a third developer which is capable of shading the color of the first developer in a case of being laminated on the first developer on the medium, and an information processing section that transmits information of a print image to the first image forming apparatus and the second image forming apparatus, the information processing section transmitting the information of the print image to the respective imaging sections such that, with respect to a visual recognition direction of the image on the medium, the image formed using the second developer is laminated on a front side in the visual recognition direction rather than the image formed using the third developer and the image formed using the first developer.

Image forming system for reducing error of image forming sequence

A transfer device includes a transfer unit including an image carrier that carries a toner image to be transferred to a transfer surface of a recording medium, a transfer member disposed on a non-transfer-surface side of the recording medium, and an opposing member disposed opposite the transfer member with the image carrier therebetween; a cleaning unit that cleans a surface of the transfer member; a first application unit that applies a voltage, for transferring the toner image, to the opposing member; and a second application unit that applies an alternating voltage to the transfer member.

Transfer device and image forming apparatus

An image forming apparatus includes a toner-image-forming device that forms a toner image on a recording material with a toner having a volume-mean particle size of about 6 &#x3bc;m or smaller; and a fixing device that includes a fixing member that fixes the toner image, a pressing member that applies pressure to the toner image, and a heating member that heats the fixing member. The pressing member applies a first pressure to the toner image while the recording material carrying the toner image passes through a pressing portion by taking a first passing time period in a first state. The pressing member applies a second pressure lower than the first pressure to the toner image while the recording material carrying the toner image passes through the pressing portion by taking a second passing time period longer than the first passing time period in a second state.
