A first communication unit 14 can transmit a value of the print counter 8 to a print-count management server 24. The print control unit 10 controls the image formation unit 5 to execute printing in accordance with generated print target data. A mode switch unit 11 is switchable between an operable mode in which the operation unit 2 receives user's input and an inoperable mode in which the operation unit 2 does not receive the user's input. In the operable mode, the print control unit 10 does not print a plurality of predetermined print target data. |
