Abstract:
A control device includes a storage and a controller and controls a system having an image forming apparatus to form an image onto a sheet based on an image forming job, and a sheet stacking apparatus having a stacking tray. The storage stores stacking state information indicating a state of sheets stacked and/or to he stacked on the stacking tray. The controller controls to generate a system configuration image that visualizes a configuration of the system, to generate a sheet bundle image that visualizes a sheet bundle stacked on the tray, and to display a screen in which the sheet bundle image is combined at a position of the stacking tray in the system configuration image. The controller controls to display the sheet bundle image such that sheets of a processed job, sheets of a job being processed, and sheets of a processing waiting job are distinguished from each other.

Claim (Index 1):
A control device to control a system having an image forming apparatus to form an image onto a sheet based on an image forming job, and a sheet stacking apparatus having a stacking tray on which the sheet is to be stacked, the control device comprising:\n a storage configured to store stacking state information indicating a state of sheets stacked and/or to be stacked on the stacking tray; and a controller configured to control to generate a system configuration image that visualizes a configuration of the system, to generate a sheet bundle image that visualizes a sheet bundle stacked on the stacking tray, and to display a screen in which the sheet bundle image is combined at a position of the stacking tray in the system configuration image, wherein the controller is configured to control to display the sheet bundle image such that sheets of a processed job, sheets of a job being processed, and sheets of a processing waiting job are distinguished from each other, wherein the processed job is a job for which processing is finished, wherein the job being processed is a job for which the processing is being executed, and wherein the processing waiting job is a job for which the processing waits.
