Abstract

A external apparatus includes an image formation data generator to generate image formation data based on which a image formation apparatus is to form an image, a job generator to generate an image formation job by adding an address of the external apparatus to the image formation data generated by the image formation data generator, an image formation job output unit to send the image formation job generated by the job generator to the image formation apparatus, and a first receiver to receive notification information from the image formation apparatus. The image formation apparatus includes a second receiver to receive the image formation job from the external apparatus, and a notification information transmitter to generate the notification information concerning the image formation job received by the second receiver and to transmit the generated notification information to the address contained in the image formation job received by the second receiver.
