Image recording apparatus and method of control for printing group selection sheet when number of stored images in group exceeds threshold

摘要

A plurality of images stored in a storage medium are classified into image groups. The number of images stored in the storage medium is compared with a threshold value determined based on the number of classified image groups and the number of images included in each image group. An image group selection sheet or a print specification sheet is printed depending on a result of the comparison. Thus, it is possible to automatically determine an optimum type of sheet for use by a user to select images and print the determined type of sheet without printing a large number of sheets.
