PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To automatically switch whether or not to make a printing job to be outputted by short distance radio communication interrupt according to the kind of a job being operated. SOLUTION: A controller has an image reading means for scanning an original and taking the original as image data, an image storage means for storing the taken image data, an image processing block for carrying out image processing to the stored image data, an image output I/F means for connecting the image processing block and an image output means with each other, a network I/F means for connection to a network, and a short distance radio communication means with a short distance radio communication I/F. In the case where it is detected in the middle of the operation of another job being printed already at the time when the stored image data is to be secure printed by the network I/F means that a person who supports the secure printing by the short distance radio communication means is present nearby, whether or not to output the image data stored in the image storage means is automatically judged by the kind of another job being printed at present.
