Abstract
In an image forming apparatus of an image forming system, a judging section judges, based on identification information included in print job data, whether a display apparatus corresponding to the print job data is a specific display apparatus. Based on a judgment result of the judging section, an image formation control section controls image forming operation of an image forming section. When it is judged by the judging section as being the specific display apparatus, this image formation control section suspends the image forming operation by the image forming section once. Further, when it is judged by the judging section as not being the specific display apparatus, the image formation control section causes the image forming operation by the image forming section to be executed promptly.
