Abstract
An image forming system includes a user terminal that includes a terminal-side processor and an image forming apparatus that includes an apparatus-side processor. In response to receiving an instruction to transmit a print request to the image forming apparatus from a user, the terminal-side processor is configured to hold the print request instead of transmitting the print request to the image forming apparatus and is configured to transmit user information indicating the user to the image forming apparatus. The apparatus-side processor is configured to transmit a transmission-request signal to the user terminal in response to detecting, on a basis of the user information, that the user comes near the image forming apparatus. The terminal-side processor is configured to transmit the print request held by the terminal-side processor to the image forming apparatus in response to receiving the transmission-request signal.
