IMAGE FORMATION DEVICE, IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM AND IMAGE FORMATION METHOD

摘要

An image formation device includes a communication unit configured to receive image data from an external device connected to the image formation device through a network, a control unit configured to set a priority order for the image data received from the external device by the communication unit, a print unit configured to print the image data from the external device and image data requested to be printed from within a local area of the image formation device, based on the priority order, and a timer unit configured to be activated when the priority order is set and detect an elapse of a set time. The control unit lowers the priority order after the elapse of the set time detected by the timer unit.
