Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a data receiving device, a memory, an image forming device forming an image on a recording medium and a control device controlling the memory to store therein a data aggregate received by the data receiving device. The data aggregate includes image data relating to an image and condition data relating to an image forming condition for forming the image on the recording medium by the image forming device. The control device determines whether command data relating to a command to the image forming apparatus is included in the data aggregate stored in the memory and, when it is determined that the command data is included in the data aggregate stored in the memory, executes a command based on the command data, instead of image formation by the image forming condition relating to the condition data.
