Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a main body and a post-processing device. The main body includes an operation panel and a first controller that switches an action mode to a first action mode or a second action mode. The post-processing device includes an operation receiving section and a second controller. The operation receiving section receives an operation by a user and outputs an operation signal. The operation receiving section is in an unreachable position for the user when operating the operation panel. The first controller switches the action mode upon determining that an operation indicated by the operation signal received through the second controller matches a predetermined operation. The second controller controls action of the post-processing device independent of control by the first controller in the second action mode.

Claim (Index 10):
The image forming apparatus according to  claim 9 , wherein\n the operation receiving section includes an operation key section configured to be pressed by the user, and the second controller, upon the user pressing the operation key section, switches the target sensor indicating the target of which the detection result is notified when the action mode is the second action mode.
