A multifunction peripheral includes: a facsimile communication section, an image memory, a job management section, a transfer instruction reception section, a password creation section, a data transfer control section, and a delete instruction reception section. When the delete instruction reception section has received a delete instruction, the job management section compares a password indicated by the delete instruction with a password created in correspondence with facsimile data of a fax job targeted for deletion by the delete instruction, and deletes the fax job indicated by the delete instruction under condition that the passwords agree with each other.
