Abstract
An electronic device is provided with an operation panel, a communication unit, and a processing unit. The operation panel has a first operation key and a second operation key within a specific region. The communication unit is arranged within the specific region of the operation panel, and is a location for communicating wirelessly with a mobile terminal that is in a state opposing the specific region. The processing unit determines whether an operation result of the second operation key is valid or invalid on the basis of operations of the first operation key and the second operation key in such a way that the operation result of the second operation key is invalidated in a case where the first operation key has been operated.
