MANAGEMENT APPARATUS, MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, OPERATION STATUS DETERMINATION METHOD, AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

摘要

A data collecting unit receives a plurality of types of status data from an image forming apparatus and stores the status data in a status database. A data generating unit generates a plurality of types of target data for determining a maintenance sign, based on the status data. A first determining unit determines whether each of the status data exceeds a predetermined reference value. A second determining unit performs weighted majority decision based on a determination result from the first determining unit and a weight value set for each of the status data, and determines whether there is a maintenance sign taking all the status data into consideration.
