Abstract: MFP accepts designation of user identification information as a destination of data, accepts designation of data to be delivered to the destination, accepts a transmission source process procedure that defines a plurality of processes to be executed on the designated data, and generates related data having them related to each other. In addition, when an input of user identification information is accepted, MFP obtains a transmission destination process procedure registered beforehand corresponding to the input user identification information, decides a final process procedure based on the transmission source process procedure related to the obtained data by the related data and the obtained transmission destination process procedure, and processes the data according to the decided final process procedure.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus is configured to access a storage that stores, therein, first associating information indicating a first terminal identifier for identifying a terminal and a first user identifier for identifying a user. The apparatus receives data based on which a print job is to be executed and which contains a second terminal identifier. If the second terminal identifier contained in the data matches the first terminal identifier indicated in the first associating information, then the apparatus executes the print job. Otherwise, the apparatus suspends execution of the print job. The apparatus receives an input of a second user identifier. If the second user identifier matches the first user identifier indicated in the first associating information, and, if the print job whose execution is suspended is selected, then the apparatus stores, into the storage, second associating information indicating the second terminal identifier and the second user identifier.

Abstract: A print system includes a printer, an information terminal and an information processor. The information terminal stores driver identification information, which is information for identifying a driver generating job information for operating the printer. The information processor receives job information transmitted from the information terminal, and causes the printer to perform a print operation based on the received job information. The information terminal transmits the driver identification information to the information processor before the job information is transmitted. If the information terminal receives information from the information processor indicating that the driver identification information is appropriate information the information terminal transmits the job information to the information processor.
