Image forming apparatus, control method, and program

摘要

While calibration is being executed in an image forming apparatus, it is not possible to execute printing until the calibration is completed, and therefore, usability of a user is poor. An image forming apparatus including Media Direct Print function to print data stored in a portable storage medium. The image forming apparatus includes a connection detection unit configured to detect connection of the portable storage medium and a control unit configured to control calibration from being executed in response to the connection detection unit detecting the connection of the portable storage medium.

1. An image forming apparatus having Media Direct Print function to print data stored in a portable storage medium, the image forming apparatus comprising;
a processor and a memory configured to function as: a connection detection unit configured to detect connection with the portable storage medium; a receiving unit configured to receive an execution request to execute calibration; a determining unit configured to determine whether the received execution request is made to execute manual calibration in response to instructions from a user or to execute automatic calibration on fulfillment of predetermined conditions; a calibration suspending unit configured to suspend execution of the calibration by not responding to the execution request, in response to the received execution request being determined by the determining unit as an execution request of the automatic calibration and the connection with the portable storage medium being detected by the connection detection unit; and a calibration execution unit configured to, in a case where the manual calibration is determined by the determining unit as the calibration requested to be executed, execute calibration by responding to the execution request to execute the calibration.
