When a user carries out an operation related to a setting or maintenance operation by displaying menu representations (31 to 36) on a console panel in a copying machine, if a predetermined time (five seconds) passes without a next operation of the user (51), a hint representation (40) is displayed to display a guidance message for a next operation. Under a state that the hint representation (40) is displayed, when menu buttons (12 and 13) are pressed, a screen returns a menu representation just before the hint representation (40), so that an operation just before the hint representation can be continuously carried out. Under a state that the hint representation (40) is displayed, when a stop button (15) is pressed, the screen displays a normal representation (20) in an idle state, so that a copying operation or the like can be performed. |
