As another alternative, the print authority allocation method includes: and setting printing permission data according to the age of the user corresponding to each user distribution role. For example, if it is identified that its voiceprint information corresponds to a child population less than 12 years old, then it is assigned a first amount of consumable supplies and/or a first number of printable pages; and when the voiceprint of the non-child population is identified to be the non-child population older than 12 years old, distributing a second available consumable amount and/or a second printable page number for the non-child population, wherein the second available consumable amount is larger than the first available consumable amount, and the second printable page number is larger than the first printable page number.
As another alternative, the print authority allocation method includes: print permission data is manually set for the user corresponding to each user identity information. For example, the printing consumable amount is set to 10% for the user 1 and/or the number of printable pages is 100; user 2 is set with 90% of the available consumable amount for printing and/or 900 printable pages.
As another alternative, the print authority allocation method includes: print authority data is set according to the acquired history data of use of the image forming apparatus by each user.

As an alternative, a portion of the available consumable amount and/or the number of printable pages may be reserved as spare print authority data.
Step 208, the image forming apparatus server judges whether the print permission data satisfies the print job, if yes, step 210 is executed; if not, go to step 214.
Specifically, the image forming apparatus server determines whether the amount of consumable supplies available for printing and/or the number of printable pages can satisfy a print job. For example, if the available consumable amount is 10%, the number of printable pages is 10, and if the number of printable pages of the print job is 1 page, the image forming apparatus server may determine that the available consumable amount and/or the number of printable pages can satisfy the print job, and step 210 is executed. For example, if the amount of available printing consumables is 1%, the number of printable pages is 1, and if the number of printable pages of the print job is 10 pages, the image forming apparatus server may determine that the amount of available printing consumables and/or the number of printable pages cannot satisfy the print job, and step 214 is executed.
