1. An image forming apparatus communicable with a plurality of registered mobile terminals registered in advance, comprising:
a storage section configured to store inherent data of respective ones of the plurality of registered mobile terminals; an apparatus wireless communication section used for connection to a wireless communication network; an apparatus control section configured to control the apparatus wireless communication section and process a job obtained from a computer terminal that is different from the plurality of registered mobile terminals and that is connected to the image forming apparatus; an instruction obtaining section configured to obtain job data indicative of a job set through a setting screen from the respective ones of the plurality of registered mobile terminals; and an operation panel, wherein the instruction obtaining section includes a near field wireless communication section, the instruction obtaining section obtains the data job from a mobile terminal of interest determined as one of the plurality of registered mobile terminals through the near field wireless communication section, only a display section to display an operation status and the near field wireless communication section are arranged in an adjacent manner on the operation panel, the instruction obtaining section starts obtaining the operation instruction once it is detected that the mobile terminal of interest determined as the one of the plurality of registered mobile terminals is held up thereover, the apparatus wireless communication section is communicable within a range of an office in which the image forming apparatus is installed, when a job is obtained from the computer terminal, the apparatus wireless communication section transmits to the wireless communication network, a confirmation signal for confirming whether there are any of the plurality of registered mobile terminals within the range communicable with the wireless communication network by broadcast, and when the apparatus wireless communication section receives a response to the confirmation signal from any of the plurality of mobile terminals, the apparatus control section determines that the image forming apparatus is not taken out from the office and causes the image forming apparatus to execute the job obtained from the computer terminal and terminate processing, when the apparatus wireless communication section does not receive a response to the confirmation signal from any of the plurality of mobile terminals after transmitting the confirmation signal, the apparatus control section determines that the image forming apparatus is taken out from the office and causes the image forming apparatus to terminate the job obtained from the computer terminal without causing the image forming apparatus to execute the job. |
