An operation determination process (step S120) is executed. If the operation signal cannot be received in the operation signal reception determination process (step S115), the control unit 41 waits until the operation signal is received.

  In the operation determination process (step S120), when the operation performed by the user is a correct operation, the control unit 41 adds 1 to the OK counter of the correct / incorrect number of times storage unit and resets the NG counter to 0. Addition processing (step S130) is executed. After the OK counter addition process (step S130), the control means 41 reads out the correct / incorrect number information stored in the correct / incorrect number storage means and determines whether the OK counter is 3 or more. (Step S140) is executed.

  When the OK counter is 3 or more in the OK counter determination process (step S140), the control means 41 resets the voice flag (ON flag) to 0, that is, the no voice setting process (set without voice guidance) ( Step S145) is executed.

  After the no sound setting process (step S145), the control unit 41 executes an operation completion determination process (step S160) for determining whether or not the operation on the screen displayed on the display unit 44 is completed. The completion of the operation in the operation completion determination process (step S160) means, for example, when the execution key 34 is pressed after setting the number of photos to be printed on the photo setting screen as shown in FIG. . When the OK counter is less than 3 in the OK counter determination process (step S140), the control unit 41 executes the operation completion determination process (step S160).

  When it is determined that the operation is completed in the operation completion determination process (step S160), the control unit 41 executes the next screen display process (step S165) for controlling the display unit 44 to display the next screen. The voice flag determination process on the screen (step S105) is executed and the same control flow is performed. To do. If it is determined in the operation completion determination process (step S160) that the operation has not been completed, the control means 41 executes an operation signal reception determination process (step S115).

  In the operation determination process (step S120), when the operation performed by the user is an incorrect operation, the control unit 41 adds 1 to the NG counter of the correct / incorrect number storage unit and resets the OK counter to 0. NG counter addition processing (step S135) is executed.

  After this NG counter addition process (step S135), the control means 41 executes an NG counter determination process (step S150) for determining whether or not the NG counter is 2 or more. In this case, the voice flag is set to 1, that is, the voice presence setting process (step S155) for setting voice guidance to be present is executed. In addition, after the voice presence setting process (step S155), the control unit 41 executes a voice flag determination process (step S105). If the NG counter is less than 2 in the NG counter determination process (step S150), the control means executes a voice flag determination process (step S105).
