An image forming apparatus configured to include an execution function of performing authentication processing on a user and executing a stored job, which is stored in a storage device in association with the user, based on a success of the authentication processing without an instruction from the user includes one or more memories, and one or more processors that execute a set of instructions to receive a job execution request to execute a job different from the stored job from an information processing terminal, and in a case where the job execution request is received and the authentication processing using user information included in the job execution request is successful, control execution of the execution function of executing the stored job without the instruction from the user to prevent the execution function from being executed.

Image forming apparatus, control method, and storage medium for preventing execution of stored job

An image forming apparatus includes a registration unit configured to register a button in association with path information indicating a file storage destination and print settings, a display unit configured to display a screen including the registered button, an acquisition unit configured to acquire one or more files by using the path information without asking a user to make a selection in a case where the displayed button is selected, and an execution unit configured to execute printing of the acquired one or more files based on the print settings.

Image forming apparatus, control method, and storage medium

An image forming apparatus that executes a password-protected job includes a function for omitting an input of a job password, manages a user password for keyboard authentication in association with a user, manages a personal identification number for icon authentication in association with the user, accepts login to an account of the user based on the keyboard authentication, permits execution of a password-protected print job associated with the user based on a print instruction without inputting a job password, accepts login to the account of the user based on the icon authentication, and permits execution of a password-protected print job associated with the user based on a print instruction with an input of a job password.

Image forming system, image forming method, and image forming apparatus having an operation device to display at least one user icon

In a case where a print job not performed according to designation of a first object for performing at least one print job without an authenticated user selecting the at least one print job is included in print jobs stored in association with identification information of the authenticated user, an image processing apparatus displays a second object for displaying a list of the print jobs stored in association with the identification information of the authenticated user in preference to the first object on a screen displayed on an operation device after the authentication.

Image processing apparatus, control method for image processing apparatus, and storage medium

An image forming apparatus capable of preventing unintended print data from being automatically printed due to a user's erroneous operation in login-time automatic printing. The image forming apparatus includes a console panel that receives a user's operation. When a user logs in to the image forming apparatus by a first login method using credential information, automatic print processing is started based on print data stored in a storage area in association with the logged-in user, and the automatic print processing is not started when a user logs in to the image forming apparatus by a second login method which does not require credential information.

Image forming apparatus capable of selectively performing login-time automatic printing, method of controlling same, and storage medium

A printing apparatus executes a set of instructions to receive a print job from an external apparatus, store in a storage device the received print job in association with user identification information, perform a user authentication, and specify print jobs which are stored in the storage device and are associated with user identification information of the authenticated user. At least one of the print jobs specified in accordance with success of the user authentication is executed. In a case where a total number of pages of the specified print jobs exceeds an upper limit number, one or more print jobs from among the specified print jobs are executed, wherein a total number of pages of the one or more print jobs falls within the upper limit number, and wherein the upper limit number is a fixed value used for a one-time process executed in accordance with success of the user authentication.

In a case where a job associated with a user has not been successfully stored in a job processing apparatus, it is not possible to exclusively notify the user that the job has not been successfully stored. A control method in a job processing apparatus includes storing a job such that the job is associated with a user, storing, identification information for identifying the user associated with a job that has not been successfully stored, and notifying the user that the job has not been stored according to login to the job processing apparatus, by the user, in a case where identification information for identifying the user having logged in to the job processing apparatus has been stored.

Job processing apparatus, method of controlling job processing apparatus, and storage medium

A printing apparatus performs control for printing the print data, in a case where the print data for which the logic print queue name is designated is received in a state where the forced reservation function is enabled, based on a print setting registered in association with the designated logic print queue name.

Printing apparatus, control method for printing apparatus, and storage medium

If a storage period of data held in a holding unit elapses and the data is deleted from the holding unit after a user logs out of a job processing apparatus, the user cannot easily recognize that there is deleted data. A method for controlling the job processing apparatus includes holding in the holding unit a job associated with a user, storing in a first storing unit identification information for identifying a user associated with a job deleted from the holding unit, storing in a second storing unit identification information for identifying a user associated with a job of which holding in the holding unit has failed, notifying based on the identification information stored in the first storing unit a user that the job is deleted, and notifying based on the identification information stored in the second storing unit a user that the holding of the job has failed.

Storing print data in association with user data

An image forming apparatus registers print jobs based on received print data and executes image formation based on a print job selected from the registered print jobs. The image forming apparatus stores a new arrival/not-new arrival state of print jobs, which enables selection of just the newly-arrived print jobs.
