Image forming apparatus having a plurality of ports to which portable memory is attachable, and computer-readable medium and method for the same

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-readable instructions executable by a controller of an image forming apparatus, the image forming apparatus comprising a print engine, a user interface, and a memory interface having a plurality of ports, each port being configured to receive a portable memory removably attached thereto, the instructions being configured to, when executed by the controller, cause the controller to:

• perform a storage printing process comprising:
• storing print data corresponding to received job data in a dedicated memory, the dedicated memory being a portable memory set as a storage destination to store the print data in the storage printing process when attached to a dedicated port among the plurality of ports;
• and
• causing the print engine to perform printing according to the print data stored in the dedicated memory in response to an operation received via the user interface;
• prior to the storage printing process, set one of the plurality of ports as the dedicated port;
• in response to a target portable memory being attached to one of the plurality of ports, determine whether the target portable memory is the dedicated memory and the port to which the target portable memory has been attached is the dedicated port;
• and
• provide a notification when determining that the target portable memory is not the dedicated memory but the port to which the target portable memory has been attached is the dedicated port.

A method implementable on an image forming apparatus comprising a print engine, a user interface, and a memory interface having a plurality of ports, each port being configured to receive a portable memory removably attached thereto, the method comprising:

• performing a storage printing process comprising:
• storing print data corresponding to received job data in a dedicated memory, the dedicated memory being a portable memory set as a storage destination to store the print data in the storage printing process when attached to a dedicated port among the plurality of ports;
• and
• causing the print engine to perform printing according to the print data stored in the dedicated memory in response to an operation received via the user interface;
• prior to the storage printing process, setting one of the plurality of ports as the dedicated port;
• in response to a target portable memory being attached to one of the plurality of ports, determining whether the target portable memory is the dedicated memory and the port to which the target portable memory has been attached is the dedicated port;
• and
• providing a notification when determining that the target portable memory is not the dedicated memory but the port to which the target portable memory has been attached is the dedicated port.
