A remotely-operated apparatus remotely operated by an external terminal notifies the external terminal of a first transition command when a server cooperation process which is a cooperation process with a server is performed. The first transition command is a command indicating that a display mode of the external terminal, in which a remote operation screen used for remotely operating the remotely-operated apparatus is displayed on a display part of the external terminal, should be changed from a transmitted image use mode in which a transmitted image screen is displayed to a browser use mode in which a browser screen is displayed. Further, the remotely-operated apparatus notifies the external terminal of a second transition command indicating that the display mode should be changed from the browser use mode to the transmitted image use mode when occurrence of a specific event inside or outside the remotely-operated apparatus is detected.

When an MFP in a group accepts log-in, in a case where a log-in user is not a user belonging to the group, the MFP requests of other MFPs as representative apparatuses of other groups, for information about jobs associated with the log-in user stored in the other groups. Based on the information about the jobs from the other MFPs, the MFP displays a selection screen to accept selection of a job by the user. The MFP outputs a control request for the selected job to an MFP storing the job.

An image forming apparatus constituting a print system includes a reception unit configured to receive a job, a determination unit configured to analyze job data of the job, and determine whether or not the job involves a storage job for performing data storage processing to a non-volatile storage unit of the image forming apparatus, an analysis unit, and a communication unit. In a case where the job is determined to involve the storage job, the analysis unit performs simplified analysis processing for obtaining list display information for displaying storage target data stored by the storage job prior to the data storage processing. When the communication unit receives a display request for displaying a list of jobs including the storage job from a second image forming apparatus, the communication unit transmits, to the second image forming apparatus, list information including information about the storage target data.
