ABSTRACT:
A readable operation unit for an image forming apparatus displays items representative of various functions relating to image formation while classifying and dividing them on a switchable screen. The operator can therefore easily understand the contents of operation in relation to the other functions despite that the functions are arranged in a hierarchical construction. Further, the operator can grasp the kind of image data and how the image data are processed and output as a single flow.
