ABSTRACT:
An improved operator controlled system for a copying machine to minimize user error and to provide a compact control console. An information display member is capable of sequentially displaying an identification of discrete operating features, such as number of copies, etc. A memory is capable of storing a predetermined set of first command signals for each discrete operating feature. A common set of control members permits the user to selectively generate second input command signals relative to any specific operating feature. These same control members are capable of inputing signals for a number of different operating features. The copying machine is capable of discriminating between the input command signals and the particular operating feature. The resulting operation of the copying machine would be in accordance with the predetermined standard set of machine functions or any combination thereof of operator inputed command functions. The specific discrete operating features are automatically displayed after a predetermined set time to minimize any error resulting from operator forgetfulness.
