Abstract
A printing apparatus includes a control unit configured to control a printing unit to start printing on sheets after confirming that a number of sheets used for printing does not exceed an upper limit number of sheets bindable by a first binding processing in a case where the first binding processing is specified and control the printing unit to start printing on sheets without confirming that a number of sheets used for printing does not exceed an upper limit number of sheets bindable by a second binding processing in a case where the second binding processing is specified.
Claims19
A printing apparatus comprising:
- a printing unit configured to print images on sheets;
- a generation unit configured to generate images used for printing;
- a first binding unit configured to execute first binding processing on sheets;
- a second binding unit configured to execute second binding processing on sheets, which is capable of executing binding processing on sheets of a number greater than an upper limit number of sheets bindable by the first binding processing;
- and
- a control unit configured to control the printing unit to start printing on sheets after confirming that a number of sheets used for printing does not exceed the upper limit number of sheets bindable by the first binding processing in a case where the first binding processing is specified, and control the printing unit to start printing on sheets without confirming that a number of sheets used for printing does not exceed an upper limit number of sheets bindable by the second binding processing in a case where the second binding processing is specified.
A control method of a printing apparatus including a printing unit configured to print images on sheets, a first binding unit configured to execute first binding processing on sheets, a second binding unit configured to execute second binding processing on sheets, which is capable of executing binding processing on sheets of a number greater than an upper limit number of sheets bindable by the first binding processing, the control method comprising:
- generating an image used for printing;
- and
- controlling the printing unit to start printing on sheets after confirming that a number of sheets used for printing does not exceed the upper limit number of sheets bindable by the first binding processing in a case where the first binding processing is specified, and controlling the printing unit to start printing on sheets without confirming that a number of sheets used for printing does not exceed an upper limit number of sheets bindable by the second binding processing in a case where the second binding processing is specified.
A printing apparatus comprising:
- a document holding unit configured to hold documents;
- a document feeding unit configured to feed the documents held on the document holding unit one by one;
- a reading unit configured to read images of the documents fed by the document feeding unit;
- a printing unit configured to print images on sheets based on the images read by the reading unit;
- a first binding unit configured to execute first binding processing on the sheets on which images are printed by the printing unit;
- a second binding unit configured to execute second binding processing on the sheets on which images are printed by the printing unit, which is capable of executing binding processing on sheets of a number greater than an upper limit number of sheets bindable by the first binding processing;
- and
- a control unit configured to control the printing unit to start printing on sheets after all of the documents held on the document holding unit is fed by the document feeding unit in a case where the first binding processing is specified, and control the printing unit to start printing on sheets before all of the documents held on the document holding unit is fed by the document feeding unit in a case where the second binding processing is specified.
