Mobile information terminal has replacement portion performing replacement processing for moving temporary setting data to storage device

An information management system comprising:

• an image forming apparatus;
• and
• a mobile information terminal configured to perform communication with the image forming apparatus;
• wherein
• the mobile information terminal includes
• a normal setting data storage device configured to store temporary setting data in advance as normal setting data that is related to settings,
• a separate setting data storage device configured to store, for each user, separate setting data that is related to individual settings in association with an identifier of said each user, and
• a hardware processor configured:
• to perform specific processing based on the normal setting data stored in the normal setting data storage device;
• to receive the identifier;
• and
• to perform replacement processing for moving the temporary setting data to a save storage device and storing into the normal setting data storage device, as the normal setting data, the separate setting data stored in association with the identifier received.

A method for sharing a mobile information terminal by a plurality of users, the method comprising:

• storing, in a normal setting data storage device, temporary setting data in advance as normal setting data that is related to settings;
• storing, in a separate setting data storage device, for each user, separate setting data that is related to individual settings in association with an identifier of said each user;
• causing the mobile information terminal to perform specific processing based on the normal setting data stored in the normal setting data storage device;
• causing the mobile information terminal to perform processing for receiving the identifier;
• and
• causing the mobile information terminal to perform replacement processing for moving the temporary setting data to a save storage device and storing into the normal setting data storage device, as the normal setting data, the separate setting data stored in association with the identifier received.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing thereon a computer program used in a mobile information terminal, the mobile information terminal including a normal setting data storage device configured to store temporary setting data in advance as normal setting data that is related to settings, and a separate setting data storage device configured to store, for each user, separate setting data that is related to individual settings in association with an identifier of said each user, the computer program causing the mobile information terminal to perform processing comprising:

• receiving processing for receiving the identifier;
• replacement processing for moving the temporary setting data to a save storage device and storing into the normal setting data storage device, as the normal setting data, the separate setting data stored in association with the identifier received;
• and
• specific processing based on the normal setting data stored in the normal setting data storage device.
