Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a login processing section and an automatic logout processing section. The login processing section executes login processing and logout processing for a user. The automatic logout processing section instructs the login processing section to execute the logout processing when a standby period elapses in a state in which no function for image formation is carried out and no operation on an operation section for the image forming apparatus is received during login by the user. The automatic logout processing section switches the standby period to a shortened period shorter than a normal period upon detection of a specific operation.
