Abstract:
A method for demanding a more flexible printing processing by an image forming apparatus which comprises a first storage section and a second storage section involves deciding whether to print the image information contained in the file; determining whether or not an image indicated by the emphasis information stored in the second storage section is contained in the image information contained in the file if the decision is carried out; creating a print command to print the image indicated by the emphasis information with a decolorable recording material in a case in which it is determined that the image indicated by the emphasis information is contained in the image information contained in the file; and sending the created print command through the communication section.

Claim (Index 1):
An image forming apparatus, comprising:\n a touch panel comprising input buttons and a display and configured to input a normal printing mode in which printing is carried out with a non-decolorable toner or a partial decoloring toner mode in which printing is carried out with a decolorable toner and the non-decolorable toner; a storage section configured to store image information and emphasis information for emphasizing a specific image; a printing section comprising a decolorable recording material and a non-decolorable recording material and configured to print a first image based on the image information stored in the first storage section with the decolorable recording material in a case in which the first image meets a predetermined condition; and a control section configured to control the printing section to print a second image indicated by the emphasis information stored in the second storage section with the decolorable recording material based on the input information by the touch panel in a case in which the first image meets the predetermined condition existing in the image information stored in the storage section.
