Abstract

A copying machine group managing system comprises a plurality of copying machines, a plurality of terminal devices each provided for one of the copying machines and a central managing unit for managing the terminal devices. Each of the terminal devices receives first input signals each indicative of one of a plurality of users divisions of the copying machines and a second input signal indicative of a utilization value of associated one of the copying machines, whereby a second input signal is stored at predetermined storage locations of a terminal data memory in accordance with a first input signal and the stored data signal is transmitted to the central managing unit. The central managing unit receives the cumulatively stored data signals from each of the terminal devices so that the received data signals are summed up separately for each of the users divisions of the copying machines and are stored at the corresponding storage locations of a central data memory.
