PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a copying machine system capable of improving the operability of a device by temporarily holding information inquired once in a copying machine and judging the propriety of the utilization of the device according to limit information held at the previous time in the case of judging the propriety of the use of the device from the next time. SOLUTION: When an operation request is received (S10), whether or not the utilization limit information corresponding to inputted user ID exists in a storage device 19 is retrieved (S11). When the relevant information exists (S12; Y), the propriety of the utilization is judged only based on the information in the device 19 without inquiring the information of a utilization limit server 20 (S15). Thus, the inquiry of the server 20 is not required, so that the enhancement of responding performance is expected. When the utilization is permitted (S15; Y), printing is performed (S16), and when it is not permitted (S15; N), the operation request is cancelled (S17). |
