To solve such the problem with an image formation apparatus to which an option device such as an inspection device is connected that users have to operate the inspection device and the image formation apparatus respectively using their operation units provided to the inspection device and the image formation apparatus, or when the inspection device is not provided with the operation unit, users have to operate the inspection device from an external terminal such as PC separately installed.SOLUTION: An image formation system includes a touch panel display of a wireless operation unit which displays a first transition icon for displaying an execution icon for forming an image on an image device and a second transition icon for displaying an icon associated with operation for an inspection device (an image reading device) side-by-side.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 10 【課題】 例えば検品装置のようなオプション装置が連結された画像形成装置において、検品装置と画像形成装置それぞれを操作するためには、それぞれに設けられた操作部を用いて操作せざるを得なかった。また、検品装置が操作部を備えない場合は、検品装置の操作は別に用意したＰＣ等の外部端末から操作しなければならなかった。【解決手段】 無線操作ユニットのタッチパネルディスプレイに、画像装置に画像形成させるための実行アイコンを表示するための第１の遷移アイコンと、検品装置（画像読取装置）の操作に関するアイコンを表示するための第２の遷移アイコンと、を並べて表示する。【選択図】 図１０
