PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To temporarily interrupt a sequence of processes in the middle of the processes and enable an image formation condition to be changed or the like by outputting a part of images not output yet among images to be output during a temporary stop of an image output process and setting so that an image formation condition in the image output process can be changed. SOLUTION: After a temporary stop to a copying process is selected, the fact that papers remain in a path in a copying machine 1 where the papers pass during an image formation process is displayed to a display means 4. On the other hand, when a paper-detecting means 6 detects that no paper remains in the path in the copying machine 1 where the papers pass, the copying process is temporarily stopped and the fact is displayed to the display means 4. During the temporary stop, a copying condition in the present copying process can be set by manipulating an operation panel of an operation input means 2. In the case where papers, toner, ink or the like as materials used in the copying process by the copying machine 1 are running out in the middle of the copying, the materials can be replenished. |
