Abstract

The invention provides an image forming apparatus, an imgae forming system and a control method of the image forming apparatus. The image forming apparatus according to the present invention is an image forming apparatus capable of playing plural roles alone, the image forming apparatus including an authentication database in which association between a user and authentication information of the user is registered, a role management database in which association between the user and the role allocated to the user, association between a department to which a plurality of users belong and the role allocated to the department, and association between the user and the department to which the user belongs are registered, an authenticating unit that performs authentication of the user according to matching between authentication information inputted by the user and the authentication information registered in the authentication database, and a role managing unit that permits, with reference to the role management database, the user authenticated by the authenticating unit to use the role allocated to the user and permits the department to which the user authenticated by the authenticating unit belongs to use the role allocated to the department.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image forming apparatus, an image forming system, and a control method of the image forming apparatus. In particular, it relates to an image forming apparatus such as an MFP (Multi-Function Peripheral), an image forming system in which an image forming apparatus such as an MFP is connected to a server via a network, and a method for controlling the image forming apparatus. Background technique [0002] As one form of an image forming apparatus, there is an apparatus called MFP (Multi-Function Peripheral: Multi-Function Peripheral). In addition to the copying function, the MFP can also realize multiple functions such as scanning, faxing, and image data storage. It is a digital composite machine that can perform multiple installation functions with one device. [0003] Also, some MFPs have a management function called a role management function in the prior art. The job management function refers to a function for re...
