Printing apparatus and printing apparatus control method

摘要

A printing apparatus of this invention includes a printing unit that executes print processing for a sheet, and feeding units that respectively store sheets conveyable to the printing unit. The printing apparatus identifies a sheet to undergo print processing, based on obtained print job data, and searches the feeding units for a feeding unit storing the identified sheet. The printing apparatus, when it detects the feeding unit storing the identified sheet, controls the printing unit to execute print processing based on the print job data for the sheet fed from the feeding unit, and when it cannot detect the feeding unit storing the identified sheet, executes avoiding processing regarding the print processing.

主权项

1. A printing apparatus comprising:
a setting unit configured to set, based on a designation by a user, whether to permit or unexceptionally inhibit print processing for a preprinted sheet which can be used as any of an inserting sheet and a print target; an accepting unit configured to accept a print job; a determining unit configured to determine, in a case where the preprinted sheet is designated in the print job and the preprinted sheet is used not as the inserting sheet but as the print target, whether or not to perform the print processing for the preprinted sheet, based on a result of setting by the setting unit; and a processing unit configured to perform the print processing for the preprinted sheet in a case where the determining unit has determined to perform the print processing for the preprinted sheet; and to cancel the print job in a case where the determining unit has determined not to perform the print processing for the preprinted sheet, wherein in the case where the preprinted sheet is designated in the print job and the preprinted sheet is used not as the inserting sheet but as the print target, the determining unit determines to perform the print processing for the preprinted sheet if the setting unit has set to permit the print processing for the preprinted sheet, and determines not to perform the print processing for the preprinted sheet if the setting unit has set to unexceptionally inhibit the print processing for the preprinted sheet, and wherein in the case where the preprinted sheet is designated in the print job and the preprinted sheet is used as the inserting sheet, the processing unit uses the preprinted sheet as the inserting sheet.
