In a data transmission apparatus, when user information for a user of an external mobile terminal coincides with user information managed by the data transmission apparatus, data transmission is readily performed based on transmission settings received from the mobile terminal. This gives rise to an issue that security cannot be ensured although the use of data transmission is limited. The data transmission apparatus uses a user authentication function to set not to transmit data transmitted from the external mobile terminal. With such a configuration, data transmission can be prevented when a limitation is made on data transmission processing by using user authentication.
