Abstract

An image forming apparatus is provided capable of preventing that an operator collects a print result object of which the print job he or she has not sent, and that a user's own print result object is taken by others away from the record medium holding section. The image forming apparatus is used for forming an image onto a record medium which has an identification information section to provide identification information, and includes a print job management information storing section for storing print management information sent from a information processing apparatus per print job to correspond to the identification information; a record medium holding section for keeping print result objects. In the apparatus, the identification information read out from a print result object and print job management information of a print job, are collated.
