Abstract
The image forming control apparatus is provided with: a receiving section that receives a print job including image data and job setting data; a control section that parses the print job inputted by the receiving section from an external section and controls the image forming section to implement the image forming operation based on the job setting data. Herein, the control section separates a separately-setup character string, which represents a specific setting being different from an original setting established for the setting item included in the job setting data, from a setting character string currently set in the setting item, and handles the job setting data so that the job setting data includes both the setting item represented by the separately-setup character string and the setting character string, so as to control the image forming section to implement the image forming operation and the paper sheet processing section to implement the paper sheet processing, based on the job setting data concerned.
