摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image formation system, an image forming apparatus and a print data distribution method for printing content intended by a user at a distribution source by a printer at a distribution destination with much simpler operation.

SOLUTION: An image formation system includes: authentication means for performing print restriction in an image forming apparatus by user units and page units on the basis of account information; creation means for creating print data; and addition means for adding first account information given to a first user who has created the print data to the created print data, and for transmitting the print data. The authentication means acquires second account information given to a second user in response to the second user instructing the image forming apparatus to print the print data including the first account information, and makes the image forming apparatus print each page of the print data under the conditions of print restriction based on the first account information or the second account information.
