embodiment 1

[0101]FIG. 1 shows a block diagram that indicates an image forming system including a multi function peripheral as an image forming apparatus according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. In the system, a multi function peripheral 1 is connected to a computer network 2, and is used by either a terminal device 3 connected to the computer network 2 or a user who operates an operation panel 11 of the multi function peripheral 1. A user operation takes place to request to execute a service, and then a request message and a response message are transmitted either inside the multi function peripheral 1 or between the multi function peripheral 1 and the terminal device 3.

[0102]In FIG. 1, the multi function peripheral 1 has the operation panel 11, a printing device 12, an image scanning device 13, a facsimile device 14, a data storage device 15, a communicating device 16 and a computer 17.

[0103]The operation panel 11 is a user interface device that contains (a) a display device such a...

embodiment 2

[0145]FIG. 7 shows a block diagram that indicates an image forming system including a multi function peripheral as an image forming apparatus according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. In the system, a multi function peripheral 101 is connected to a computer network 102, and is used by either a terminal device 103 connected to the computer network 102 or a user who operates an operation panel 111 of the multi function peripheral 101. A user operation takes place to request to perform a service, and then a request message and a response message are transmitted either inside the multi function peripheral 101 or between the multi function peripheral 101 and the terminal device 103.

[0146]In FIG. 7, the multi function peripheral 101 has the operation panel 111, a printing device 112, an image scanning device 113, a facsimile device 114, a data storage device 115, a communicating device 116, and a computer 117.

[0147]The operation panel 111 is a user interface device that contains...

embodiment 3

[0209]As well as Embodiment 2, in Embodiment 3, buttons are displayed in an operation panel of an image forming apparatus, and attribution information on the buttons is described in a text format. In terms of a simple text language processing program, the attribution information in a text format is parsed, the buttons are displayed according to the attribution information, and a process specified by the attribution information is executed when the buttons are operated.

[0210]FIG. 26 shows a schematic diagram that indicates a hardware configuration in the image forming apparatus 210 of Embodiment 3.

[0211]In the image forming apparatus 210, an MPU 211 is connected via interfaces 212 to a PROM 213, a DRAM 214, an operation panel 215, a printer 216, a scanner 217, a NIC 218, a FAX modem 219, a USB port 220, a toner remaining amount detector 221, an IC card reader 222, an electronic tag reader 223, and a timer TM. In FIG. 26, for simplicity, the interfaces are depicted as one block.
