Abstract: Provided is a setting management system (8) for managing the change status of setting information (131) in an image forming apparatus (1) during operation. Multiple image forming apparatuses (1) start operating based on the same setting information (131) in which operation setting values (621) transmitted from a management server (6) are reflected. Each of the image forming apparatuses (1) receives changes in the setting information (131) by multiple setting-receiving units (171a, 171b, 171c) during operation. In each of the setting-receiving units (171a, 171b, 171c), a change-detecting unit (172) detects that the setting information (131) is changed. The setting-change status (332) of setting information (131) is correlated with the setting-receiving unit (171a, 171b, 171c) and transmitted by a change-status-transmitting unit (173). The management server (6) receives the setting-change status (332) from an image forming apparatus (1) by a server-communication unit (61). As a result, a setting-management unit (632) collectively manages histories of the setting changes of multiple image forming apparatuses (1) based on the received setting-change status (332) and the operation setting values (621).

Then at least one additional nanopore nucleation voltage pulse is applied between the two membrane surfaces, through the liquid environment, if the measured electrical conductance is no greater than the first prespecified electrical conductance. At least one nanopore diameter tuning voltage pulse, having a tuning pulse voltage amplitude and duration, is applied between the two membrane surfaces, through the liquid environment, if the measured electrical conductance is greater than the first prespecified electrical conductance and no greater than a second prespecified electrical conductance.
