Behind the EO of function setting, by pressing initiate key 101 (ST14), read original copy by scanner 2, begin to carry out facsimile transmission.
Then, (ST15) is in background job (operation originally: when ST16) certain obstacle taking place (ST17) in the operation of function setting, the demonstration that system CPU 100 just takes place at the obstacle that carries out on the information display 93 of guidance panel 114 about about 3 seconds, after 3 seconds, the demonstration that the cancellation obstacle takes place can be proceeded operation.
But, forbid carrying out the operation starting this moment.As long as supress initiate key 101, system CPU 100 finishes with regard to decision, and carries out demonstration (the obstacle notice: ST18), if removed obstacle, just can start (ST19) that obstacle takes place on the information display 93 of guidance panel 114 once more.
If opened front cover plate (in the present embodiment, auto document feeding means 4 being set), action just stops immediately.Its reason is exactly the danger that takes place in order to prevent to follow unusual releasing action.On the contrary, before cover plate is opened in front, then continue operation always.
After removing obstacle during the initiate key 101 of push panel 114 (ST20), from printer 3 printing (ST21) of tabulating/report, after this printing finishes, just can carry out function setting from guidance panel 114, when continuing the operation of setting facsimile transmission (ST22), read original copy by scanner 2, carry out facsimile transmission.In addition, after tabulation/report printing finished, printer 3 had been removed obstacle, so, just carry out background job (operation originally) (ST23).
Below, with reference to the action example of time diagram explanation when before the operation of carrying out foreground job obstacle having taken place in background job of Figure 12.
When certain obstacle has taken place (ST31) in the carrying out of background job (operation originally) in printer 3 (ST32),, just can not operate (setting) again as long as do not remove obstacle.But, not limited when obstacle is " no toner ".
That is, can not operate (ST33), on the information display 93 of guidance panel 114, carry out (the obstacle notice: ST34) that shows of obstacle even supress the function switch key 120 of guidance panel 114.
Removing obstacle (ST35) afterwards, (ST36) began to carry out background job (operation originally) (ST37) once more when printer 3 finished in preheating (W.UP).
In addition, after the preheating of printer 3 finished, by the function switch key 120 (ST38) of push panel 114, system CPU 100 was set the Status Flag of expression operation (foreground job) beginning, from guidance panel 114 set-up functions (ST39).
Behind the EO of function setting, by pressing initiate key 101 (ST40), read original copy by scanner 2, begin to carry out facsimile transmission.
Below, with reference to the action of the operating system of the embodiment 2 of the flowchart text of Figure 13 digital copier 1 of the present invention.
At first, under standby condition, begin to carry out the printing (ST51) of background job, during key beyond the initiate key of push panel 114 101 (ST52), system CPU 100 is set the Status Flag (ST53) of operation (foreground job) beginning in the printing of expression backstages.Here, carried out the operation of facsimile transmission pattern as the foreground job supposition.
When the obstacle of " copy paper stops up in arrangement " has taken place in the background job that begins in ST51 (ST54), because system CPU 100 has just been set Status Flag at ST53, so just conduct is the foreground job operation in the printing of backstage, thereby proceeds this foreground job operation (ST55).
Behind the EO of foreground job, by pressing initiate key 101 (ST56), system CPU 100 just stores the job content of this foreground job operation among the RAM104 (ST57) with document form.
