Information processing apparatus that can be set by a user operation to limit functions provided to an external apparatus so as to include a printing function but exclude a file sharing function, method for controlling the same, and storage medium
Abstract:
An information processing apparatus (printing apparatus) provides a service to an external apparatus via a communication line. A first communication unit performs communication via a first communication line. A second communication unit performs communication via a second communication line that is different from the first communication line. A provision unit provides a user interface for accepting, from a user, a setting that limits services that are to be provided via the second communication line. A limitation unit limits services that are to be provided via the second communication line, to one or more services out of a plurality of services that the information processing apparatus can provide, according to the setting accepted via the user interface.
