Abstract
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.
