A control device of the present invention includes: a face position detecting section for detecting a position of a user's face in an image captured by a capturing device; a face recognition processing section for checking a partial image against reference face images, the partial image being at the position detected in the captured image, and extracting a reference face image that matches the face in the partial image; a user authentication section for specifying a user name that corresponds to the extracted reference face image; and a data checking section for (i) checking whether or not a multifunction printer receives print data added with the specified user name, and (ii) if it is confirmed that the multifunction printer receives the print data, operating an image forming section of the multifunction printer to form an image based on the print data. This realizes a control device which (i) authenticates a user in an easy way in which impersonation can be prevented without inconvenient operation, and (ii) prevents another user from accidentally viewing a printed matter.
