User terminal apparatus, method of controlling user terminal apparatus, image forming apparatus, and method of controlling image forming apparatus

A method of controlling an image forming apparatus connected to a user terminal apparatus, the method comprising:

• receiving job metadata comprising a parameter related to an image forming job and information about an application selected in the user terminal apparatus from the user terminal apparatus;
• fetching the application selected in the user terminal apparatus from an application server by using the information of the job metadata about the application;
• installing the fetched application;
• and
• performing the image forming job by using the installed application and the parameter related to the image forming job.

A user terminal apparatus which controls an operation of an image forming apparatus, the user terminal apparatus comprising:

• an input part which selects an application positioned in an application server;
• a display which displays an interface for receiving a parameter related to an image forming job provided by the selected application;
• a controller which generates job metadata about the image forming apparatus, wherein the job metadata comprises the parameter received by the interface and information about the selected application;
• and
• a communicator which transmits the generated job metadata to the image forming apparatus.

An image forming apparatus connected to a user terminal apparatus, the image forming apparatus comprising:

• a communicator that receives job metadata comprising a parameter related to an image forming job and information about an application selected in the user terminal apparatus from the user terminal apparatus;
• a controller that fetches the application selected in the user terminal apparatus from an application server by using the information of the job metadata about the application and installs the fetched application;
• and
• an image former which performs the image forming job by using the installed application and the parameter related to the image forming job.
