1. A print system in which a print job generated by a user terminal is executed by an image-forming apparatus through an information processing apparatus, wherein
one or more processors of the user terminal execute instructions stored in a memory of the user terminal to transmit a print job including identification information specifying an apparatus user of the image-forming apparatus to the information processing apparatus,
one or more processors of the information processing apparatus execute instructions stored in a memory of the information processing apparatus to
store the print job transmitted from the user terminal in the memory of the information processing apparatus, and
transmit a job list of print jobs including the print job and identification information to the image-forming apparatus when the image-forming apparatus issues a request,
one or more processors of the image-forming apparatus execute instructions stored in a memory of the image-forming apparatus to
receive the print job included in the job list from the information processing apparatus, and
execute the received print job and
the one or more processors of the user terminal further execute the instructions to
determine whether the apparatus user having the identification information included in the print job is registered in a target image-forming apparatus, and
cancel the print job by deleting registered print job data when determining that the apparatus user is not registered in the target image-forming apparatus.
