Abstract

The present invention provides an image forming apparatus to which a portable storage medium can be connected. The image forming apparatus of the present invention includes: a storage unit storing default setting information; a connection unit for connecting a portable storage medium capable of storing user-specific setting information customized for each user; and a control unit that When the portable storage medium storing the user-specific setting information is connected to the connection unit, the default setting information stored in the storage unit is not changed, but the user-specific settings stored in the portable storage medium are used. processing of information. According to the present invention, it is possible to improve the user's convenience when changing settings of setting information.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image forming apparatus to which a portable storage medium can be connected. Background technique [0002] There is known an image forming apparatus having an operation panel displaying various information. Then, the operation panel of the image forming apparatus displays setting items that can be set when performing copying, and receives setting instructions from the user. [0003] For example, as setting items that can be set when performing copying, there are a plurality of items such as reduction / enlargement, density, double-sided / separation, and page collection. In this way, when there are a plurality of setting items that can be set when performing copying, various types of copying can be performed. However, on the other hand, there are also inconveniences in that the setting contents of a plurality of setting items must be confirmed, or the setting contents must be changed when necessary. [0004] As a meth...
