Image forming apparatus, image forming control apparatus, image forming system and image forming control program

摘要

The image forming control apparatus is provided with: a receiving section that receives a print job including image data and job setting data; a control section that parses the print job inputted by the receiving section from an external section and controls the image forming section to implement the image forming operation based on the job setting data. Herein, the control section separates a separately-setup character string, which represents a specific setting being different from an original setting established for the setting item included in the job setting data, from a setting character string currently set in the setting item, and handles the job setting data so that the job setting data includes both the setting item represented by the separately-setup character string and the setting character string, so as to control the image forming section to implement the image forming operation and the paper sheet processing section to implement the paper sheet processing, based on the job setting data concerned.

1. An image forming apparatus, comprising:
a receiver that receives a print job from an external computer, wherein the print job includes image data and job setting data; a printer circuit that forms an image onto a paper sheet based on the image data; and a controller that parses the print job inputted by the receiver, and controls the printer circuit to make the printer circuit implement an image forming operation based on the job setting data, wherein the job setting data comprises a setting item, in which a setting character string is set, the setting character string comprises an original character string and a separately-setup character string, the controller separates the separately-setup character string from the setting character string currently set in the setting item included in the job setting data, the separately-setup character string represents a specific setting different from a setting of the original character string established for the setting item, and the controller controls the printer circuit to implement the image forming operation based on the specific setting represented by the separately-setup character string and the setting represented by the original character string.
