Abstract
A job development task performs image processing on image data of input jobs. An output section control task causes the processed image data to be output from a print section, a FAX transmission/reception section, or the like. A job control task recognizes the execution state of a specified job. A UI control task determines alterable process items relating to the specified job in accordance with the recognized execution state, and causes those process items to be displayed on a display device of an operation section. As a result, in altering a certain process item of the job, the process items that can be set are displayed in accordance with the job state of the specified job, which allows the user to alter the process item correctly and quickly.
