There are provided a printing apparatus which holds a job, determines whether attribution information of a sheet to be used by the stored job is registered for a sheet storage unit, judges whether a sheet exists in a sheet storage unit to be used by the job, and notifies a result of the determination and a result of the judgment.
Claims13
A printing apparatus that is able to convey a sheet from at least one of a plurality of sheet storage units and print an image on the sheet, comprising:
- a holding unit configured to hold one or more print jobs;
- a judgment unit configured to judge whether or not a sheet exists in the at least one sheet storage unit to be used by a print job of one or more print jobs held in the holding unit;
- a notification unit configured to notify, based on the judgment by the judgment unit, that a sheet to be used by the print job does not exist;
- a selection instruction receiving unit configured to receive, from a user, a selection instruction for selecting at least one print job from among the print jobs held in the holding unit;
- an executing instruction receiving unit configured to receive, from a user, an executing instruction for the at least one print job selected by the selection instruction;
- and
- an executing unit configured to execute the at least one print job selected by the selection instruction according to the executing instruction received by the executing instruction receiving unit,
- wherein the notification unit is able to notify that a sheet to be used by the selected at least one print job does not exist before the executing instruction receiving unit receives the executing instruction for the selected at least one print job.
A control method for controlling a printing apparatus which is able to convey from at least one of a plurality of sheet storage units and print an image on the sheet, comprising:
- holding one or more print jobs in a holding unit;
- judging whether or not a sheet exists in the at least one determined sheet storage unit to be used by a print job of one or more print jobs held in the holding unit;
- notifying, based on the judgment, that a sheet to be used by the print job does not exist;
- receiving, from a user, a selection instruction for selecting at least one print job from among print jobs held in the holding unit;
- receiving, from a user, an executing instruction for the at least one print job selected by the selection instruction;
- and
- executing the print job selected by the selection instruction according to the received executing instruction,
- wherein it is able to be notified that a sheet to be used by the selected at least one print job does not exist before the executing instruction receiving unit receives the executing instruction for the selected at least one print job.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a method, the method comprising,
- holding one or more print jobs in a holding unit;
- judging whether or not a sheet exists in the at least one determined sheet storage unit to be used by a print job of one or more print jobs held in the holding unit;
- notifying, based on the judgment, that a sheet to be used by the print job does not exist;
- receiving, from a user, a selection instruction for selecting at least one print job from among print jobs held in the holding unit;
- receiving, from a user, an executing instruction for the at least one print job selected by the selection instruction;
- and
- executing the print job selected by the selection instruction according to the received executing instruction,
- wherein it is able to be notified that a sheet to be used by the selected at least one print job does not exist before the executing instruction receiving unit receives the executing instruction for the selected at least one print job.
