An image forming apparatus and an image forming system are supplied capable of obtaining a simple system structure without increasing traffic. In the system, an image forming apparatus is connected with a delivery source user terminal serving as a delivery source of print data, and with at least one delivery destination user terminal allowed to use the print data via network. In the apparatus, a store controlling section receives the print data to which user information representing the delivery destination user terminal is appended from the delivery source user terminal, and stores the print data into a print data storing section; a delivery destination notifying section performs a notification representing a print need/needlessness based on an existence of the print data and the print data, for the delivery destination user terminal represented in the user information; and a print need/needlessness judging section, when received a print request from the delivery destination user terminal, obtains the print data from the print data storing section and supplies the print data to a print processing section for executing a print of the print data.
