Abstract:
Provided is an information processing apparatus and a control method thereof. The apparatus includes a user interface unit that accepts an operation made by a user and a wireless communication unit that communicates wirelessly with an information terminal. A user authentication is executed in response to a user authentication request from the information terminal via the wireless communication unit. In the event of the authentication succeeding, a screen displayed by the user interface unit is not switched in the case where there is a logged-in user who has been authenticated through the user interface unit in response to the user authentication request, whereas the screen displayed by the user interface unit is switched in the case where there is no such logged-in user.

Claim (Index 1):
An information processing apparatus comprising:\n a user interface that accepts user operations; a communication interface that communicates with an communication terminal; a memory device that stores a set of instructions; and at least one processor that executes the instructions stored in the memory device to function as:\n an authentication unit that executes a user authentication; \n an authentication control unit that executes a user authentication using the authentication unit upon a condition that a user authentication request from the communication terminal via the communication interface; and \n a determination unit that determines whether or not there is a loin user that uses the user interface; \n a control unit that, upon a condition in which the user authentication has succeeded by the authentication control unit and the determination unit has determined that there is no login user, switches a screen to be displayed by the user interface to a screen that is used by a user that has been authenticated by the authentication control unit and notifies information indicating that a login to the communication terminal is successful, and \n upon a condition in which the user authentication has succeeded by the authentication control unit and the determination unit has determined that there is the login user, does not switch the screen to be displayed by the user interface into the screen that is used by the user that has been authenticated by the authentication control unit and notifies information indicating that the login to the communication terminal is successful.
