Original Abstract Submitted
In image forming apparatus according to the present disclosure, a controller causes a setting icon to transition to a locked state in response to an operation received via a user I/F. In a case where a temporarily releasing operation of temporarily releasing the locked state is performed in the locked state, the controller causes the user I/F to be in a temporarily released state. The controller is configured to release the temporarily released state and to cause the user interface to return to the locked state, triggered by the temporarily released state having been continued for a predetermined period of time.
