Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming system that changes, with a simple operation, designation of a print condition for print jobs transmitted from an information processing terminal to an image forming apparatus.SOLUTION: An information processing terminal transmits print jobs D0 including primary print data corresponding to the highest image quality and information on print condition designation including image quality designation (S103). An image forming apparatus determines whether the print jobs D0 each satisfy a preparation start condition in a print queue (S207), and changes a print condition designated for a print job D0 not satisfying the condition according to a change operation (S210). The image forming apparatus converts primary print data D1 of a print job D0 satisfying the preparation start condition into data D1x corresponding to image quality designation (S208) and executes the print jobs D0 (S211).SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5 【課題】情報処理端末から画像形成装置へ送信された印刷ジョブについて、簡易な操作によって印刷条件の指定を変更する画像形成システムを提供する。【解決手段】情報処理端末は、最高画質に対応する一次印刷データと画質指定を含む印刷条件指定の情報とを含む印刷ジョブD0を送信するS103。画像形成装置は、印刷キューにおける印刷ジョブD0各々が準備開始条件を満たすか否かを判定しS207、その条件を満たさない印刷ジョブD0の印刷指定条件を、変更操作に応じて変更するS210。画像形成装置は、準備開始条件を満たす印刷ジョブD0の一次印刷データD1を画質指定に対応するデータD1xへ変換しS208、印刷ジョブD0を実行するS211。【選択図】図5
