Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a setting section, a setting display section, a determination section, a change section, and an incompatible option display section. The setting section sets image formation functions, which include first and second functions. The setting display section displays a single or plurality of options on each of setting screens. The single or plurality of options is set as a setting condition for each function. The setting screens respectively correspond to the functions. The determination section determines if a combination of options is incompatible. The change section changes a display form of the option of the first function when the determination section determines that the combination is incompatible. The incompatible option display section displays a setting screen of the option of the second function when the option of the first function is selected after the display form of the option of the first function is changed.
