A method of processing a printing job data is provided in which the secrecy of a job data required for the confidential printing can be ensured in the display of a status data indicative of a printing state of the job data. The method comprises the steps of: examining whether the confidential printing for a job data to be printed out is requested or not; when the confidential printing is requested, deleting or altering the document name contained in the job data; and releasing the job data from which the document name has been deleted or altered. The step of deleting or altering the document name may include a sub-step of encrypting the document name. The step of deleting or altering the document name may include a sub-step of storing the document name in a data area other than its original data area. The method may further comprise a step of displaying on a display a status data indicative of a processing state of the job data on a printer. The status data displayed contains the document name.
