Abstract
An image forming device includes: a central processing unit (CPU); and a storage connected to the CPU and that stores permission levels required for execution of user instructions in a first table for an internal web user interface (UI) application and in a second table for an external web UI application installed on an external device. The CPU: acquires a user level; determines whether a web UI application is installed on the image forming device or the external device; acquires a permission level, from the first table when the user instruction is received from the image forming device and from the second table when the user instruction is received from the external device; and allows execution of the user instruction when the user level is equal to or higher than the acquired permission level acquired.
