    Abstract: An information processing system includes an information processing device provided with a housing. The information processing device includes: a placement section that is disposed on an upper surface of the housing, the placement section on which a portable communication object is placed; a wireless communicator that wirelessly communicates with the communication object placed on the placement section; and a first protrusion that extends in a left-right direction along a lower end of the placement section. The placement section includes a placement surface sloping downward from a back side toward a front side, the placement surface on which the communication object is placed. A step, forming a gap between the placement surface and the communication object, is disposed in a lower end portion of the placement surface.

    Abstract: An image forming system includes a mobile communication terminal, and an image forming device. The mobile communication terminal includes memory that stores data, a location determiner that accepts specifying of data and instruction for printing the specified data and determines whether data is stored in memory or stored in an accessible external device, and a print instructor that, in a case where data is stored in the memory, sends data to the image forming device together with the print instruction, and in a case where data is stored in the external device, sends access information, which is for accessing data, to the image forming device, together with the print instruction. The image forming device includes a controller that, when receiving data together with the print instruction, prints the received data, and when receiving the access information together with the print instruction, acquires and prints data stored in the external device.
