Claims14
A printing apparatus comprising:
- a first storage unit configured to store a plurality of pieces of sheet information indicating a sheet and including an attribute value of the sheet;
- a second storage unit configured to store an allowable range used for searching a sheet to be used in print processing using the attribute value;
- a third storage unit configured to store a condition of a sheet applicable to sheet processing which is executed with respect to a sheet on which the print processing is executed;
- a searching unit configured to search for specific sheet information from the first storage unit based on the allowable range and the condition of the sheet applicable to the sheet processing in a case where an attribute value of a sheet to be used in the print processing and sheet processing are set in a print job;
- and
- a printing unit configured to execute print processing on a sheet indicated by the specific sheet information found by the searching unit.
A printing system comprising:
- a first storage unit configured to store a plurality of pieces of sheet information indicating a sheet and including an attribute value of the sheet;
- a second storage unit configured to store an allowable range used for searching a sheet to be used in print processing using the attribute value;
- a third storage unit configured to store a condition of a sheet applicable to sheet processing which is executed with respect to a sheet on which the print processing is executed;
- a searching unit configured to search for specific sheet information from the first storage unit based on the allowable range and the condition of the sheet applicable to the sheet processing in a case where an attribute value of a sheet to be used in the print processing and sheet processing are set in a print job;
- and
- a printing unit configured to execute print processing on a sheet indicated by the specific sheet information searched by the searching unit.
A method for controlling a printing apparatus including a first storage unit configured to store a plurality of pieces of sheet information indicating a sheet and including an attribute value of the sheet, a second storage unit configured to store an allowable range used for searching a sheet to be used in print processing using the attribute value, and a third storage unit configured to store a condition of a sheet applicable to sheet processing which is executed with respect to a sheet on which the print processing is executed, the method comprising:
- searching for specific sheet information from the first storage unit based on the allowable range and the condition of the sheet applicable to the sheet processing in a case where an attribute value of a sheet to be used in the print processing and sheet processing are set in a print job;
- and
- executing print processing on a sheet indicated by the specific sheet information found by the searching.
