Abstract

A push notification system includes an image forming apparatus, a mobile terminal apparatus, a push notification server, and a provider that are connected to a network. The image forming apparatus prints print job data transmitted from the mobile terminal apparatus, generates a first event message including a status code, its attribute information, and a device token of the mobile terminal apparatus in the print job data, and transmits it to the provider. The provider generates a second event message including the device token in a record, registered in a subscription table and matching a status type code of the status code in the first event message and the device token, and the status code in the first event message, and transmits it to the push notification server. The push notification server transmits the second event message to the mobile terminal apparatus of the device token in the second event message.
