PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming apparatus capable of communicating with a self-propelled device to manage the self-propelled device.SOLUTION: An image forming apparatus 100 includes an image forming unit 110, a communication unit 120, and a CPU 130. The image forming unit 110 forms images on paper. The communication unit 120 transmits and receives, to/from a self-propelled cleaner driven by a driving unit to be self-propelled on a floor surface, device signals related to the self-propelled cleaner. The CPU 130 manages the self-propelled cleaner on the basis of a result of the transmission and reception of the device signals in the communication unit 120. |
