A communication system comprising an information processing apparatus and a mobile terminal, wherein when the mobile terminal receives a packet transmitted from the information processing apparatus, it determines whether or not a login condition for transmitting a login request is satisfied based on a received signal strength of the packet, and it transmits the login request to the information processing apparatus in a case where it determines that the login condition is satisfied, and does not transmit the login request to the information processing apparatus in a case where it is determines that the login condition is not satisfied.

Communication system, mobile terminal, method of controlling the mobile terminal, and storage medium

To provide an apparatus for performing operation relating to switching of a power switch while power is supplied from an auxiliary power source, the apparatus acquires switch information indicating whether the power switch is in an on state from a BMU of a battery pack and determines whether to limit processing based on a user instruction based on the acquired switch information.

Information processing apparatus and control method for determining whether to limit processing based on switch information

If it is determined that a recording medium is set in a first set portion and a recording medium is not set in a second set portion and a print target image is not included in a first region and a print target image is included in a second region in printing data, the printing data is edited so that the print target image included in the second region is printed onto the first set portion and is not printed onto the second set portion.

Printing apparatus and control method

A conventional information processing apparatus which allows simultaneous parallel use by a plurality of users includes a plurality of operation units to receive operations of the respective plurality of users, so that the information processing apparatus can be simultaneously used. Such a configuration is wasteful in terms of equipment, resources, and space. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, an information processing apparatus which allows simultaneous parallel use by a plurality of users includes a single display unit configured to be able to input operation instructions to the information processing apparatus, and a control unit configured to perform display control to display an operation input screen corresponding to a first user and an operation input screen corresponding to a second user on the single display unit in a split display mode or in an alternate display mode.
