A printing apparatus includes a reading unit to read a document image to generate image data, and a printing unit to print an image of the image data on a sheet supplied from any of multiple sheet storage portions. The printing apparatus determines whether an automatic selection function is enabled or disabled. The automatic selection function automatically selects, from among the sheet storage portions, a source for supplying a sheet that is used for printing. If the automatic selection function is enabled and a user specifies a predetermined sheet storage portion that has no sheet stored therein, the job execution instruction is not allowed. If the automatic selection function is disabled and a sheet storage portion that supplies a sheet for printing from among the plurality of sheet storage portions has no sheet stored therein, the job execution instruction is allowed. |

1. A printing apparatus comprising:
a plurality of sheet storage portions; a reading unit configured to read an image on a document to generate image data corresponding to the read image; an acquisition unit configured to acquire information about the document the image on which is read by the reading unit; a printing unit configured to print an image on a sheet supplied from any one of the plurality of sheet storage portions based on the image data generated by the reading unit; a control unit configured to cause, in response to accepting a job execution instruction, which is an instruction to execute a job, the reading unit to perform image reading and the printing unit to perform image printing; an automatic selection unit configured to automatically select, from among the plurality of sheet storage portions, a sheet supply source, which is a source for supplying a sheet that is used for printing, based on the information acquired by the acquisition unit; and a determination unit configured to determine whether the automatic selection unit is enabled or disabled, wherein, in a case where it is determined by the determination unit that the automatic selection unit is enabled, if a user specifies a predetermined sheet storage portion as a sheet storage portion that supplies a sheet for printing from among the plurality of sheet storage portions and the specified sheet storage portion has no sheet stored therein, the control unit does not allow the job execution instruction, and wherein, in a case where it is determined by the determination unit that the automatic selection unit is disabled, if a sheet storage portion that supplies a sheet for printing from among the plurality of sheet storage portions has no sheet stored therein, the control unit allows the job execution instruction. |
