Information processing apparatus and control method thereof

摘要

The present invention provides a technique that simplifies operations for making appropriate print settings. Accordingly, a terminal apparatus serving as an information processing apparatus according to the present invention acquires, from a printing apparatus, information indicating the sheet type and size of the sheets set in each paper feed tray. Then, the terminal apparatus determines whether the acquired information includes a sheet type that matches a sheet type suitable for an attribute of information selected by a user as a print target. If it is determined that the information includes a sheet type that matches the suitable sheet type, the terminal apparatus generates print data including information designating a paper feed tray containing sheets of the matching sheet type, and transmits the generated print data to the printing apparatus.

主权项

1. An information processing apparatus having a first wireless communication unit and a second wireless communication unit which is capable of performing higher speed communication than the first wireless communication unit, the information processing apparatus comprising:
an acquisition unit configured to acquire communication information from an image forming apparatus using the first wireless communication unit, wherein the image forming apparatus prints using a sheet in a feed tray of the image forming apparatus; a determination unit configured to determine a sheet attribute that is used to perform printing based on an attribute of print; a communication control unit configured to cause the second wireless communication unit to establish communication with the image forming apparatus using the acquired communication information; and a transmission unit configured to transmit print target data to the image forming apparatus via the established communication, wherein sheet information for the feed tray is stored in the image forming apparatus, wherein, if the sheet attribute determined by the determination unit corresponds to the sheet information for the feed tray stored in the image forming apparatus, printing is performed, and wherein if the sheet attribute determined by the determination unit does not correspond to the sheet information for the feed tray stored in the image forming apparatus, the sheet information for the feed tray being stored in the image forming apparatus and an option corresponding to a print cancellation are displayed in a display area, and then processing based on an instruction input via the display area is performed.
