Image forming apparatus with a proximity communication device and non-transitory computer readable medium for executing a process for controlling the same

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer for an image forming apparatus to execute a process, the image forming apparatus comprising at least one proximity communication device configured to provide at least first information and second information in a storage area of the at least one proximity communication device to an external apparatus, the computer controlling the at east one proximity communication device, the process comprising:

• rewriting the first information in the storage area in accordance with a transition of a first apparatus state of the image forming apparatus caused by a first user input, and
• rewriting the first information and the second information in the storage area in accordance with a transition of a second apparatus state of the image forming apparatus caused by a second user input,
• wherein the transition of the first apparatus state of the image forming apparatus k a transition from a state before a user logs in, via a user interface screen to the image forming apparatus or is a transition in which the image forming apparatus is connected to a first network address, and
• the transition of the second apparatus state of the image forming apparatus is a transition that occurs after the user logs in via a user interface screen, a transition in which the image forming apparatus is connected to a second network or a transition in which a connection information to a first network is deleted.

An image forming apparatus comprising:

• at least one proximity communication device configured to provide at least first information in a storage area of the at least one proximity communication device to an external apparatus;
• and
• a controller configured to:
• rewrite the first information to include function selection information for selecting a function of the image forming apparatus in the storage area in accordance with a transition of a first apparatus state of the image forming apparatus to a user logged-in state, and
• rewrite the first information to include function application information for controlling a selected function in the storage area in accordance with a transition of a second apparatus state of the image forming apparatus to a state in which the image forming apparatus performs the selected function;
• wherein the transition of the first apparatus state of the image forming apparatus is a transition from a state before a user logs in, via a user interface screen, to the image forming apparatus or is a transition in which the mace forming apparatus is connected to a first network address, and
• the transition of the second apparatus state of the informing apparatus is a transition that occurs after the user lops in via the user interface screen a transition in which the image forming apparatus is connected to a second network, or a transition in which a connection information to a first network is deleted.
