Original Abstract Submitted
An image forming device includes an outputter that outputs, in a case where an authentication method is capable of being set and an authentication method that requires prior authorization by an authorization service is selected, screen information of a setting screen corresponding to the authentication method that requires the prior authorization by the authorization service, and one or more controllers that control output of the screen information by the outputter. The one or more controllers perform control to determine a display content of the setting screen based on an output destination of the screen information and output the screen information including the display content.
