Abstract
An image forming system includes a sheet holding apparatus and an image forming apparatus configured to form an image on a sheet conveyed from a sheet holding unit of the sheet holding apparatus. The sheet holding apparatus includes a display unit. The display unit is configured to, in a case where an amount of sheets held in the sheet holding unit decreases to a first amount before execution of a job is completed, issue a notification using a first notification method, and in a case where the amount of sheets held in the sheet holding unit decreases to a second amount smaller than the first amount before the execution of the job is completed, issue a notification using a second notification method.
Claims11
An image forming system comprising:
- a sheet holding apparatus;
- and
- an image forming apparatus configured to form an image on a sheet conveyed from a sheet holding unit of the sheet holding apparatus,
- wherein the sheet holding apparatus includes a display unit, and
- wherein the display unit is configured to, in a case where an amount of sheets held in the sheet holding unit decreases to a first amount before execution of a job is completed, issue a notification using a first notification method, and in a case where the amount of sheets held in the sheet holding unit decreases to a second amount smaller than the first amount before the execution of the job is completed, issue a notification using a second notification method.
A method for controlling an image forming system including a sheet holding apparatus and an image forming apparatus configured to form an image on a sheet conveyed from a sheet holding unit of the sheet holding apparatus, the method comprising:
- issuing, in a case where an amount of sheets held in the sheet holding unit decreases to a first amount before execution of a job is completed, a notification by a display unit of the sheet holding unit using a first notification method;
- and
- issuing, in a case where the amount of sheets held in the sheet holding unit decreases to a second amount smaller than the first amount before the execution of the job is completed, a notification by the display unit using a second notification method.
A computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to perform a method for controlling an image forming system including a sheet holding apparatus and an image forming apparatus configured to form an image on a sheet conveyed from a sheet holding unit of the sheet holding apparatus, the method comprising:
- issuing, in a case where an amount of sheets held in the sheet holding unit decreases to a first amount before execution of a job is completed, a notification by a display unit of the sheet holding unit using a first notification method;
- and
- issuing, in a case where the amount of sheets held in the sheet holding unit decreases to a second amount smaller than the first amount before the execution of the job is completed, a notification by the display unit using a second notification method.
