IMAGE FORMING DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD FOR THE IMAGE FORMING DEVICE, AND STORAGE MEDIUM STORING COMPUTER- READABLE PROGRAM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To efficiently conduct copy processing without rejecting copy requests, even on the occurrence of a plurality of copy processing requests using at least two image readers in an image forming device where a plurality of the image readers are connected to one image output device. SOLUTION: Assume that a copy request under the designation of a 1st reader section 110a and a copy request under the designation of a 2nd reader section 110b take place in parallel, then the CPU of a controller 201 decides which image read by which reader section copy processing is to have priority, on the basis of number of setting copies for copy processing corresponding to each reader section.
