<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To display a guidance on the function of a device to a user who does not know about the function. <P>SOLUTION: In the image forming apparatus, guidance information is stored in advance for guiding an optimal operation procedure for execution of a job, and the guidance information is displayed on a display portion 102b based on operation input that is input to an input portion 102a in order to execute a job of image formation. For example, a device control portion 104 compares operation input that is input to the input portion 102a in order to execute the job of image formation with the guidance information corresponding to the job executed by the operation input, and causes the display portion 102b to display the guidance information in a case where an actual frequency of operation input is greater than a frequency of operation input that is specified in an operation procedure of the guidance information. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
