IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS SUPPORTING NEAR FIELD COMMUNICATION (NFC) FUNCTION AND METHOD OF PROVIDING USER INTERFACE (UI) SCREEN CUSTOMIZED TO NFC DEVICE

摘要

An image forming apparatus supporting a near field communication (NFC) function identifies, if a user device having an NFC function is NFC-tagged, the user device by receiving identification information of the user device, and displays, when the user device is identified, a user interface (UI) corresponding to the identified user device.

主权项

1. An image forming apparatus supporting a near field communication (NFC) function, the image forming apparatus comprising:
a user interface unit to display a first user interface (UI) providing menus related to an image job and image job options; an NFC module to receive identification information of a user device having the NFC function if the user device is NFC-tagged; and a control unit to identify the user device based on the received identification information, wherein when the user device is identified, the user interface unit converts the displayed first UI to a second UI corresponding to the identified user device.
