PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make early startable the provision of management service to a user in the case that an image forming device is not connected to a communication control device. SOLUTION: A copying machine 100 periodically judges whether an operation part display finish flag is turned on or not by a timer, and in the case that it is not turned on, a non-communicating counter is counted up, and in the case that the value of the non-communicating counter is larger than a specified value, a display such as 'A CSS cable is disconnected' is executed to an operation part 1010. In the case that communication with the communication controlling device is not executed for a specified time, the image forming device informs a user of it by this system, so that the user recognizes that the communication is not executed and connects a signal conductor and it is quickly started to provide the control service to the user. |
