Abstract:
The image forming apparatus includes a reading unit, a setting detection unit for detecting a document setting, a display panel, an operation unit, a storage unit, a control unit, and a job execution unit. Upon recognizing a document setting onto the reading unit, the control unit controls the reading unit to execute precedent reading for reading the set document. The control unit controls the storage unit to store precedently-read image data that are image data acquired by the precedent reading. The control unit controls the display panel to display a setting screen corresponding to a job type selected by the operation unit.

Claim (Index 12):
A control method for an image forming apparatus comprising the steps of:\n reading set document sheets one by one to generate image data; displaying a screen and an image; accepting a user's operation; storing data; executing a job; recognizing a document setting onto a reading unit; upon recognition of the document setting, executing precedent reading for reading the document set on the reading unit; storing precedently-read image data that are image data acquired by the precedent reading; after a start of the precedent reading and when an operation unit has accepted an operation of selecting a job type to be executed by using the precedently-read image data, displaying a setting screen corresponding to a job type selected by the operation unit; and when the operation unit has accepted a job execution start instruction, executing a job based on the precedently-read image data.
