Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a setting unit that sets a non-billing mode that is a mode of executing, without performing billing, a job that is set such that billing is performed for execution of the job, and a storage unit that stores a history of a job executed during a period in which the non-billing mode is set, wherein the stored history includes a cumulative number of pages obtained by printing performed by executing a job during a period in which the non billing mode is set.
Claims11
An image forming apparatus comprising:
- a setting unit configured to set a non-billing mode that is a mode of executing, without performing billing, a job that is set such that billing is performed for execution of the job;
- and
- a storage unit configured to store a history of a job executed during a period in which the non-billing mode is set,
- wherein the stored history includes a cumulative number of pages obtained by printing performed by executing a job during a period in which the non-billing mode is set.
A control method for an image forming apparatus, the control method comprising:
- setting a non-billing mode that is a mode of executing, without performing billing, a job that is set such that billing is performed for execution of the job;
- and
- storing a history of a job executed during a period in which the non-billing mode is set,
- wherein the stored history includes a cumulative number of pages obtained by printing performed by executing a job during a period in which the non-billing mode is set.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform a control method for an image forming apparatus, the control method comprising:
- setting a non-billing mode that is a mode of executing, without performing billing, a job that is set such that billing is performed for execution of the job;
- and
- storing a history of a job executed during a period in which the non-billing mode is set,
- wherein the stored history includes a cumulative number of pages obtained by printing performed by executing a job during a period in which the non-billing mode is set.
