Abstract
To prevent generation of an error caused by a print job spooled in a memory in boot processing of an image printing apparatus, a print job file left in a hard disk is checked in boot processing. When an unprocessed print job file exists, it is regarded as the cause of abnormal operation of the image printing apparatus, and deleted. This control method can prevent abnormal operation repeated by a print job file every boot processing, and subsequent boot processing.
Claims14
A control method for an image printing apparatus having a memory and spool means for temporarily storing received data as a print job file in the memory, comprising:
- the detection step of detecting the print job file stored in the memory in boot;
- and
- the print job file delete step of deleting the print job file when the print job file stored in the memory is detected.
An image printing apparatus having a memory and spool means for temporarily storing received data as a print job file in the memory, comprising:
- detection means for detecting the print job file stored in the memory in boot;
- and
- print job file delete means for deleting the print job file when the print job file stored in the memory is detected.
A control program for controlling an image printing apparatus having a memory and spool means for temporarily storing received data as a print job file in the memory, comprising:
- a code of the detection step of detecting the print job file stored in the memory in boot;
- and
- a code of the print job file delete step of deleting the print job file when the print job file stored in the memory is detected.
A computer-readable storage medium which stores a control program for controlling an image printing apparatus having a memory and spool means for temporarily storing received data as a print job file in the memory, wherein the control program comprises:
- a code of the detection step of detecting the print job file stored in the memory in boot;
- and
- a code of the print job file delete step of deleting the print job file when the print job file stored in the memory is detected.
