ABSTRACT:
In a network printing apparatus, a job receiving unit receives a print request, and a name
ame-identifier acquiring unit acquires the name of a print request issuer, a protocol, and a name identifier for identifying the request issuer from the print request received by the job receiving unit. A name-identifier judging unit refers to an access control table, and judges whether or not the name identifier obtained from the print request is coincident with that in the access control table. A name determining unit refers to the same table, and judges whether or not the name obtained from the print request is coincident with that in the table. If the name identifiers are coincident with each other and the names are also coincident with each other, a right determining unit determines the right necessary for carrying out the print request process for the print request issuer, on the basis of a kind of access in the entry associated with the name of the print request issuer in the access control table, and allows the request issuer to access the network printing apparatus by its right. When a group identifier is registered in the access control table, the name determining unit judges whether or not the request issuer belongs to the group in a specified manner.
