Embodiment Construction

[0028] Hereinafter, a display input device and an image forming apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. figure 1 It is a schematic diagram showing the image forming apparatus 1 in the present invention.

[0029] exist figure 1 Among them, the image forming apparatus 1 is composed of an electrophotographic image forming apparatus using toner as a developer, an ink jet printer using ink, or the like, and includes a display unit 21 and a touch panel 22 integrally formed on the front of the main body.

[0030] The display unit 21 is a display screen composed of an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) or the like, and displays an operation method, various messages, operation buttons (software buttons), and the like. The display unit 21 and the touch panel 22 are formed integrally. The touch panel 22 is, for example, a touch panel of a resistive film type, detects the position (coordinates) pressed by the user, and ou...

Abstract

A display input device includes a display section, a touch panel, a display control section, and an information control section. The display control section enables a display frame having no fixed information regions to be displayed on the display section. The information control section indicates contents and importance of a message for the display control section when a notice event is generatedfor a user during processing of an image forming apparatus. The display control section enables the message to be displayed on the display section through a pop-up window in accordance with a displaymethod of the importance. In a state enabling the display frame to be displayed on the display section, if display indication of the message is received from the information control section, the display control section provides pop-up window display of the message at a pop-up window display position set at a location other than a predetermined display region. Moreover, the touch panel accepts input by pressing on a software button even on the basis of the pop-up window display of the display control section. Therefore, the display region of the display section can be utilized effectively, andthe message to the user can be displayed intuitively and efficiently.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a display input device that displays an operation screen, a message, etc. to a user and receives an operation instruction, and an image forming apparatus including the display input device. Background technique [0002] A display input device including an image forming apparatus generally includes a touch panel function, and displays the operating status of the device, software buttons for receiving operation instructions from a user, various messages, and the like. [0003] Conventionally, the position of the display area for displaying various messages in the input device has been predetermined and always secured. However, in recent years, image forming apparatuses have become more multifunctional, and more often than not, a plurality of tasks are operated at the same time, and the content displayed by the display input device has also become complicated, and the amount of information has also increased. In such a ca...
