Claim 0:
1. An image forming apparatus comprising:
a data interface;
a non-volatile memory; and
a controller including hardware, the controller being configured to:
obtain a print job that includes printer job language (PJL) data and page description language (PDL) data via the data interface;
refer to filter data stored in the non-volatile memory, the filter data associating non-target PJL data with target PJL data different from the non-target PJL data;
when the PJL data included in the obtained print job is the non-target PJL data associated with the target PJL data in the filter data stored in the non-volatile memory, convert the PJL data into the target PJL data that is associated with the non-target PJL data in the filter data stored in the non-volatile memory, before performing a printing process based on the PDL data included in the print job; and
perform the printing process using the PJL data after the conversion.
