Print controlling terminal apparatus, print controlling method, image forming apparatus, and method of controlling for analyzing state information

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

• an input unit which inputs a first set value which determines whether or not to activate an operation of analyzing a state information of the image forming apparatus;
• a communication unit which receives print data from the print controlling terminal apparatus;
• a print unit which performs a print operation using the received print data;
• and
• a control unit which determines whether or not to execute the operation of analyzing the state information according to the input first set value, if a request for state information is received from the print controlling terminal apparatus,
• when a second set value included in the print data is received from the print controlling terminal apparatus, the input first set value is changed to the second set value included in the print data,
• wherein the first and second set values includes a value which selects a setting of activating the operation of analyzing the state information or a setting of deactivating the operation of analyzing the state information.
