Abstract:
A printing apparatus manages the number of communications for printing requests to prevent the number of communications using the predetermined protocol from reaching an upper limit, in a case where a print job is received by using a predetermined protocol.

Claim (Index 1):
A printing apparatus comprising:\n an establishment unit configured to establish communication with an information processing apparatus according to a first protocol in a case where a number of communications using the first protocol is smaller than a first upper limit of number of communication concurrently sustainable through the first protocol; a determination unit configured to execute determination processing for determining whether the number of communications using the first protocol exceeds a second upper limit of number of communication as a result of establishing the communication by the establishment unit, wherein the second upper limit is smaller than the first upper limit; and a control unit configured to notify the information processing apparatus of a state where a print job is not acceptable through the established communication in a case where it is determined that the number of communications exceeds the second upper limit, wherein, in a case where a request is received through a second protocol different from the first protocol, communication processing using the second protocol is executed without executing the determination processing.
