An information processing apparatus that improves operability, productivity and flexibility in print setting when collectively executing print jobs. If a print instruction is input, a job list display unit determines whether the instruction is directed to a plurality of job data items. If the instruction is directed to a plurality of job data items, it is determined whether or not to allow the user to confirm output settings for each individual print job. If the user confirms the output settings, a user interface for making a change to the output settings associated with each individual print job is displayed. The displayed output settings are the output settings saved together with the job data item. If the user does not confirm the output settings, the user interface is not displayed, and output settings and the corresponding job data item are associated with each other, and they are transferred to a printer.

Information processing apparatus and control method thereof

An information processing apparatus includes a designation input unit configured to designate a storage area of a print job to be retrieved from among a plurality of types of storage areas that store print jobs, a retrieval condition input unit configured to input a retrieval condition, a retrieval unit configured to extract, from print jobs that are stored in the storage area designated by the designation input unit, a print job based on the retrieval condition input by the retrieval condition input unit, and a display control unit configured to cause a display unit to display the print job extracted by the retrieval unit as a retrieval result.
