- 5. An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said apparatus further comprises input control means which discriminately indicates input by each of the input units.
- 6. An apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising additional input means, separate from said display unit, for inputting numerical information relating to an input parameter.
- 7. An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the plural kinds of parameters include a parameter indicating whether a black-white reverse operation should be performed.
- 8. An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the plural kinds of inputted parameters include a parameter indicating whether a book mode processing should be performed.
- 9. An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the plural kinds of inputted parameters include a parameter indicating whether a sending processing should be performed.
- 10. An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the plural kinds of inputted parameters include a parameter indicating whether a negative-positive reverse should be performed.
- 11. An inputted apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the plural kinds of inputted parameters include a parameter indicating whether a size change processing should be performed.
- 12. An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein a combination of processing operations can be executed between the plural parameter groups registered by said register means.
- 13. An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said register means determines whether a combination of processing operation can be executed between the plural parameter groups registered by said register means.
- 14. An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said register means may modify the plural parameter groups registered by said register means after the plural parameter groups are read.
- 15. An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said register means registers the plural parameter groups in accordance with plural keys.
- 16. An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the standard parameter group is written to said memory means during manufacturing.
- 17. An apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising reset means for providing a reset instruction, wherein said reading means reads the standard parameter group from said memory means in response to a reset instruction provided by said reset means.
- 18. An apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising reset means for providing a reset instruction, wherein said display unit is controlled to display the standard parameter group stored in said memory means in response to a reset instruction provided by said reset means.
- 19. A method for use with an apparatus including a display unit and input units provided correspondingly to the display unit, wherein the number of input units is smaller than the number of parameters to be displayed on the display unit, and wherein the display unit is capable of changing the displayed contents and displaying plural kinds of parameters for information processing, said method comprising the steps of:selectively displaying, on the display unit, plural kinds of parameters necessary for executing a single information processing for an image formed on a sheet; storing in memory a standard parameter group which includes plural kinds of parameters necessary for controlling operation of the apparatus during execution of a single information processing; registering plural parameter groups, each group including plural kinds of inputted parameters necessary for executing a single information processing by a single input corresponding to the registered parameters, wherein the plural kinds of parameters of each parameter group are parameters for controlling operation of the apparatus during the execution of the single information processing and for controlling formation of the image; and reading one parameter group selected from the plural parameter groups necessary to execute the single information processing registered in said registering step.
- 20. A method according to claim 19, wherein said input means further reads a group registered at said register means by means of said reading means.
- 21. A method according to claim 19, wherein said display unit comprises an LCD controller.
- 22. A method according to claim 19, wherein the information processing is an editing of image data.
- 23. A method according to claim 19, wherein the apparatus includes input control means, and said method further comprises discriminately indicating input by each of the input units.
- 24. A method according to claim 19, further comprising the step of inputting numerical information relating to an input parameter.
- 25. A method according to claim 19, wherein the plural kinds of parameters include a parameter indicating whether a black-white reverse operation should be performed.
- 26. A method according to claim 19, wherein the plural kinds of inputted parameters include a parameter indicating whether a book mode processing should be performed.
- 27. A method according to claim 19, wherein the plural kinds of inputted parameters include a parameter indicating whether a sending processing should be performed.
- 28. A method according to claim 19, wherein the plural kinds of inputted parameters include a parameter indicating whether a negative-positive reverse should be performed.
- 29. A method apparatus according to claim 19, wherein the plural kinds of inputted parameters include a parameter indicating whether a size change processing should be performed.
- 30. A method according to claim 19, wherein a combination of processing operations can be executed between the plural parameter groups registered by said register means.
- 31. A method according to claim 19, further comprising the step of determining whether a combination of processing operation can be executed between the plural parameter groups.
- 32. A method according to claim 19, further comprising the step of modifying the plural parameter groups registered by said register means after the plural parameter groups are read.
- 33. A method according to claim 19, further comprising the step of registering the plural parameter groups in accordance with plural keys.
- 34. A method according to claim 19, wherein said storing step includes writing the standard parameter group to memory during manufacturing.
- 35. A method according to claim 19, further comprising the step of providing a reset instruction from reset means, wherein the standard parameter group is read from said memory by reading means in response to a reset instruction provided by the reset means.
- 36. A method according to claim 19, further comprising the step of providing a reset instruction from reset means, wherein the standard parameter group stored in memory is displayed by the display unit in response to a reset instruction provided by the reset means.
