Abstract
An image forming system includes a client apparatus, a server apparatus and an image forming apparatus. The client apparatus includes a designating unit. The designating unit designates identification information stored in the server apparatus and image data. The server apparatus includes a first memory unit and a transmitting unit. The first memory unit stores the identification information. The transmitting unit transmits the identification information and the image data designated by the designating unit to the image forming apparatus. The image forming apparatus includes an image forming unit, a second memory unit, an accepting unit and a control unit. The second memory unit stores first authentication information corresponding to the identification information. The accepting unit accepts second authentication information. The control unit restricts the image forming unit from outputting the image data on the sheet, when the second authentication information doesn't correspond to the first authentication information.
