An image forming device according to an embodiment includes an image display device, a sensor, a first unit, a second unit, a control unit, and a storage unit. The sensor acquires information on a phenomenon that occurs in association with occurrence of an abnormality in the own device. The first unit includes a plurality of components and performs a part of image forming processing. The second unit includes a plurality of components and performs processing that is a part of the image forming processing and is different from the processing performed by the first unit. The control unit causes the first and second units to operate at different timings and performs display for causing a user to instruct a timing at which the abnormality occurs on the image display device. The storage unit records, as abnormality information, the information acquired by the sensor and an instruction of the user.
