Abstract
An image forming apparatus judges whether or not a close-range wireless communication with a portable terminal is enabled during a period until a printer completes printing out print data. Based on a result drawn from the judgment and a print operation status of the image forming apparatus itself, which is indicated until completion of printing out the print data, the image forming apparatus deletes the print data from the memory or keeps the print data recorded in the memory.
