Local operation of an image forming apparatus is permitted from a tablet terminal only in a case where the tablet terminal is in the vicinity of the image forming apparatus. To achieve this, the position of the tablet terminal is determined by GPS. Alternatively, the position of a user holding a tablet terminal is determined using a local authentication unit of the image forming apparatus. Local operation is permitted if the user of the tablet terminal is within a predetermined range with respect to the image forming apparatus. |
