摘要

This invention provides an image processing apparatus (101) which can be connected to an information processing apparatus (103) via a communication unit and a control method for the apparatus. The apparatus registers identification information of the information processing apparatus in association with authentication information for authenticating a user. The apparatus acquires, upon reception of a job from the information processing apparatus via the communication unit, the identification information of the information processing apparatus which has transmitted the job and determines whether or not the acquired identification information is registered. The apparatus authenticates the user by using the authentication information registered in association with the identification information when determining that the identification information is registered. The apparatus executes the job when the authentication succeeds.
