PRINTING APPARATUS, CONTROLLING METHOD OF PRINTING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

摘要

To effectively output a job in which a double-sided page and a single-sided page are mixed by using a double-sided conveying path and a single-sided conveying path or the single-sided conveying path, a method for controlling a printing apparatus comprises: specifying a print prediction time in a case where the job is executed by using a first printing process of printing the double-sided page and the single-sided page in the job by using the double-sided conveying path, and a print prediction time in a case where the job is executed by using a second printing process of printing the double-sided page and the single-sided page in the job by switching between the double-sided conveying path and the single-sided conveying path; and executing the job by using, from either the first printing process or the second printing process, the printing process for which the specified print prediction time is shorter.
