An image forming apparatus having a wireless access point function for operating the image forming apparatus as a wireless access point, comprising:
- a display device configured to display information;
- at least one memory that stores a set of instructions;
- and
- at least one processor that executes the instructions, the instructions, when executed, causing the information processing apparatus to perform operations comprising
- causing the display device to display a first screen regarding the wireless access point based on an acceptance of a specified user operation, wherein the first screen includes information indicating the number of external terminals connected to the wireless access point and a first display item for displaying a second screen different from the first screen;
- and
- causing the display device to display the second screen regarding the wireless access point based on an acceptance of a user operation of selecting the first display item,
- wherein the second screen includes at least a second display item including identification information for identifying an external terminal connected to the wireless access point, and a third display item for accepting a user operation of specifying an external terminal to be terminated in a connection to the wireless access point, and
- wherein the first screen includes no identification information for identifying the external terminal connected to the wireless access point.
A control method executed in an image forming apparatus which comprises a display device configured to display information and has a wireless access point function for operating the image forming apparatus as a wireless access point, the method comprising:
- causing the display device to display a first screen regarding the wireless access point based on an acceptance of a specified user operation, wherein the first screen includes information indicating the number of external terminals connected to the wireless access point and a first display item for displaying a second screen different from the first screen;
- and
- causing the display device to display the second screen regarding the wireless access point based on an acceptance of a user operation of selecting the first display item,
- wherein the second screen includes at least a second display item including identification information for identifying an external terminal connected to the wireless access point, and a third display item for accepting a user operation of specifying an external terminal to be terminated in a connection to the wireless access point, and
- wherein the first screen includes no identification information for identifying the external terminal connected to the wireless access point.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for a method of controlling an image forming apparatus which comprises a display device configured to display information and has a wireless access point function for operating the image forming apparatus as a wireless access point, the method comprising:
- causing the display device to display a first screen regarding the wireless access point based on an acceptance of a specified user operation, wherein the first screen includes information indicating the number of external terminals connected to the wireless access point and a first display item for displaying a second screen different from the first screen;
- and
- causing the display device to display the second screen regarding the wireless access point based on an acceptance of a user operation of selecting the first display item,
