摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To use a display section of an operation panel of an image forming apparatus to attain keyboard display and desired image display and to easily transplant a terminal display application to the image forming apparatus without the need for greatly modifying the inside of the terminal display application for displaying data on the terminal. PSOLUTION: A syntax analysis section 141 analyzes received data from a standard output of a terminal display application 113, and calls display processing in a function call section 146 when the data include an escape sequence control code. The function call section 146 applies function call with respect to soft keyboard display or image adhesion display to an OCS (Operation panel Control Service) function library 145 in response to the display designated by the escape sequence control code and allows an operation panel 160 to display the called function on a display section.
