Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image formation apparatus and a control program that are more friendly with global environment by providing environmentally resisting performance associated with an image formation apparatus even for a user who is highly aware of environmental resistance.SOLUTION: A consumables ordering system which orders consumables of an image formation apparatus (1) comprises: a control unit (501) which controls operations of the device; and a display unit (101) which makes a simultaneous list display or thumbnail display of product information on consumables and the environmentally resisting performance information. The control unit (501) has a function of displaying, within a display screen of the display part (101), an Ecoview icon (120) as a specific operation key for displaying environmental resisting performance information associated with an image formation device (1) in addition to an IMAGE SEND initial screen (110a) having operation keys, and a user confirms a thumbnails to confirm consumables which have higher environmental resisting performance.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6 【課題】対環境意識の高いユーザにとっても画像形成装置に係る対環境性能情報を提供してよりいっそう地球環境に優しい画像形成装置及び制御プログラムを提供する。【解決手段】画像形成装置(1)の消耗品を発注する消耗品発注システムにおいて、装置の動作を制御する制御部(501)と、消耗品の製品情報と対環境性能情報とを同時にリスト表示またはサムネイル表示する表示部(101)と、を備え、制御部(501)は、表示部(101)の表示画面内に、操作キーを有するIMAGE SEND 初期画面(110a)に加えて画像形成装置(1)に係る対環境性能情報を表示するための特定操作キーとしてEcoviewアイコン(120)を表示する機能を備えて、ユーザがサムネイルを確認することで、より対環境性能の高い消耗品を確認することができることを特徴とするものとする。【選択図】図6
