Image forming apparatus and non-transitory computer readable medium for processing an instruction to use a borderless printing function
An image forming apparatus is provided. Upon receiving a borderless printing instruction, the image forming apparatus performs cleaning processing according to a sheet size. The cleaning processing is different from cleaning processing to be performed when a border printing instruction is received.
1. An image forming apparatus comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one of a fixing device and a transfer device,
wherein the fixing device comprises:
a border-printing fixing device; and
a borderless-printing fixing device configured to be used interchangeably with the border-printing fixing device,
wherein the transfer device comprises:
a border-printing transfer device; and
a borderless-printing transfer device configured to be used interchangeably with the border-printing transfer device,
wherein the at least one processor is configured to, if an instruction to execute a borderless printing function is received, and if the borderless-printing fixing device is not set, or the borderless-printing transfer device is not set, then restrict at least one of a number of times the borderless printing function may be executed and a user using the borderless printing function, and
wherein the number of times is at least one.
2. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program that, when executed, causes a computer within an image forming apparatus to execute a process comprising:
restricting at least one of a number of times a borderless printing function may be executed and a user using the borderless printing function, if an instruction to execute the borderless printing function is received and at least one of:
a border-printing fixing device of the image forming apparatus and a borderless-printing fixing device of the image forming apparatus are configured to be used interchangeably and the borderless-printing fixing device is not set; and
a border-printing transfer device of the image forming apparatus and a borderless-printing transfer device of the image forming apparatus are configured to be used interchangeably the borderless-printing transfer device is not set,
wherein the number of times is at least one.
3. The image forming apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the image forming apparatus is configured to execute the borderless printing function without using the borderless-printing transfer device.
4. The image forming apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the image forming apparatus is configured to execute the borderless printing function without using the borderless-printing fixing device.
