Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes a registration unit, a display control unit, a login processing unit, and a restricting unit. The registration unit registers, as user information about a user who can log into the apparatus, user identification information for identifying the user as well as a display name displayed instead of the user identification information. When a list of user information registered is displayed, the display name as for a user whose display name has been registered and the user identification information as for a user whose display name is not registered is displayed. When the display name or the user identification information displayed is selected, login processing is executed through which a user corresponding to the thus selected name or information can log into the apparatus. The restricting unit restricts registration of the display name so that identical names are not displayed on the list of user information.
