IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS AND DISCHARGE DESTINATION DISPLAY METHOD

摘要

An image forming apparatus includes an inquiry portion, a determination portion, and a discharge destination display portion. The inquiry portion inquires a terminal device as a transmission source of a print job as to whether or not another terminal device exists near a terminal device. The determination portion, when the other terminal device exists, determines whether or not the other terminal device is included in a transmission destination of a print job of a printed matter existing in a discharge destination, based on the present state of a discharge destination. The discharge destination display portion, when the other terminal device is included in the transmission destination of the print job of the printed matter existing in the discharge destination, displays a discharge destination of a printed matter corresponding to the other terminal device, and user identification information of a user who owns the other terminal device.
