Abstract
In an image output apparatus which performs printing based on transferred data, when bus reset occurs during isochronous data transfer through a serial bus, the data transfer is suspended and a print error is caused. Therefore, when bus reset occurs during image data transfer through the serial bus, transferring and outputting of image data is performed again, and stapling is performed for proper stapling. Similarly, when bus reset occurs, transferring and outputting of image data is suspended, the printouts whose printing has been suspended are discharged to a dedicated bin provided for erroneous printouts, and transferring and outputting of the image data is performed again. Accordingly, an erroneous printout caused by bus reset is not intermingled with proper printouts on the same bin.
