Image forming apparatus, data management method, and storage medium

摘要

An image forming apparatus includes a state management unit that shifts an authentication state from a non-login state to a login state, a storage unit that stores setting information, and a data management unit that, in a case where a free space of the storage unit is less than a threshold value, deletes the setting information stored in the storage unit at a timing of shifting from the non-login state to the login state and secure a free space greater than or equal to the threshold value in the storage unit.

1. An image forming apparatus communicating with a server apparatus storing setting information for a plurality of users who log in to the image forming apparatus, the image forming apparatus comprising:
an authentic unit configured to authenticate a user who logs in to the image forming apparatus; a reception unit configured to receive, from the server apparatus, the setting information for the user authenticated by the authentication unit; a display unit configured to display an operation screen based on the setting information received by the reception unit; a storage unit configured to store the setting information for the user authenticated by the authentication unit; and a data management unit configured to, in a case where the authentication unit authenticates a first user, determine whether setting information for the first user is storable in the storage unit, and in a case where it is determined that the setting information for the first user is not storable, delete setting information for a second user who logged in to the image forming apparatus in the past stored in the storage unit and store the setting information for the first user received by the reception unit in a second storage unit.
