Abstract
Provided is an image-forming apparatus and an input method capable of inputting numerical values quickly and easily without providing a hardware ten-key or causing an operation display part to display a software ten-key. The image-forming apparatus includes a display part (IP), a touch panel (TP), and a control part (CP). The IP indicates various information pieces (VIP) including an indicated numerical value (INV) to be inputted on a plane. The TP provided on a surface of the IP detects a position to which an operation, say, a depression is made for operating each of different operation points. The CP receives detection information from the TP and outputs the VIP to the IP. The CP counts the number of tapping actions as the INV, each the tapping action being an operation on a first operation point within a first detection region on the TP.
