PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a copying device capable of preventing the waste of resources or the leakage of secrets due to a hibernation function. SOLUTION: An image forming device having a hibernation function for forming an image by accepting an image forming job accepts the contact destination information of the image forming job. At the time of detecting a power-off edge, a password is assigned to the image forming job whose contact destination is accepted (a step S24), and the contact destination is informed of the password (a step S25), and the image forming job is held in the execution inhibiting state (a step S23). After the power source is restored, at the time of accepting a release request for requesting the release of the execution inhibiting state of the image forming job by designating the password, the password designated by the release request is collated with the password assigned to the image forming job, and when the collated result is a prescribed one, the execution inhibiting state of the image forming job is released. |
