Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a storage unit configured to store user information and a print job in association with each other, an operation reception unit configured to receive a user operation, an authentication unit configured to authenticate a user with use of the user information, and a print control unit configured to execute and print the print job stored in association with the user information based on the user operation received by the operation reception unit. In a case where the operation reception unit is in failure, the print control unit executes the print job stored in association with the user information in response to authentication of the user with use of the user information.
