Abstract

In this invention, a function is added to a digital copying machine or a function of the digital copying machine is changed from a remote terminal by using a window image displayed on an operation unit of the digital copying machine. This allows an operator of the remote terminal to check the arrangement and shapes of actual operation buttons by which functions are displayed on the operation unit. It is possible to avoid choosing a wrong icon for assigning or changing a function and present changes of functions readily understandable by an operator.
