Abstract:
1. An image forming device comprising: a first determining unit configured to determine, after receiving a power-off request, whether or not print processing is being executed; a second determining unit configured to determine, in a case where the first determining unit determines that print processing is being executed, whether or not authentication information of a print-instructing person of the print processing being executed is identifiable; a cut-off unit configured to associate a print job of the print processing being executed with the authentication information and store the print job and the authentication information in a nonvolatile storage area in a case where the second determining unit determines that the authentication information is identifiable, and then cut-off power; a third determining unit configured to determine, after receiving a power-on request, whether or not a print job stored in the nonvolatile storage area is associated with the authentication information; and a deletion unit configured to delete, in a case where the stored print job is not associated with the authentication information, the unassociated print job stored in the nonvolatile storage area.
