Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A display apparatus displays an identification information element corresponding to an image currently displayed on a display unit in accordance with a first instruction from a user. In accordance with a second instruction from the user, the display apparatus causes a printing apparatus to perform printing based on an image data element corresponding to an identification information element selected by the user from among one or more identification information elements being displayed.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A display system comprising: a display unit configured to display a screen including a first display region in which a plurality of images are displayed one by one and a second display region in which a plurality of preview images, of a plurality of images selected by a user from among the plurality of images which have been displayed in the first display region, are arranged; and a print control unit configured to control a printing unit to perform printing based on image data corresponding to at least one image selected by a user from among the plurality of preview images arranged in the second display region. 2. The display system according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the plurality of preview images displayed in the second display region corresponds to one of the plurality of images which was displayed in the first display region and is not presently displayed in the first display region. 3. The display system according to claim 1 , further comprising a generation unit configured to generate a preview image to be displayed in the second display region based on the image displayed in the first display region. 4. The display system according to claim 3 , wherein, when a button, displayed by the display unit, is selected by a user while an image is displayed in the first display region, the generation unit is configured to generate the preview image corresponding to the image displayed in the first display region. 5. The display system according to claim 1 , wherein the image data, which corresponds to at least one image selected by a user from among the plurality of preview images arranged in the second display region, further corresponds to the image displayed in the first display region. 6. The display system according to claim 1 , wherein the image data, which corresponds to at least one image selected by a user from among the plurality of preview images arranged in the second display region, further corresponds to the at least one image arranged in the second display region. 7. The display system according to claim 1 , further comprising an all-selection unit configured to select all of the plurality of preview images arranged in the second display region in accordance with an instruction of a user. 8. The display system according to claim 1 , further comprising an all-deselection unit configured to deselect all of images selected by the user from among the plurality of preview images arranged in the second display region in accordance with an instruction of a user. 9. The display system according to claim 1 , further comprising a selection-deselection unit configured to perform selection and deselection of each image from among the plurality of preview images arranged in the second display region in accordance with an instruction of a user. 10. The display system according to claim 1 , further comprising a reception unit configured to externally receive image data corresponding to an image to be displayed in the first display region, in accordance with an operation of a user. 11. The display system according to claim 1 , wherein an image, which is selected by a user from among the plurality of images displayed in the first display region, is a printable image which is allowed to be printed, and an image, which is not selected by a user from among the plurality of images displayed in the first display region, is a non-printable image which is not allowed to be printed. 12. A control method comprising: displaying a screen including a first display region in which a plurality of images are displayed one by one and a second display region in which a plurality of preview images, of a plurality of images selected by a user from among the plurality of images which have been displayed in the first display region, are arranged; and controlling to perform printing based on image data corresponding to at least one image selected by a user from among the plurality of preview images arranged in the second display region. 13. The control method according to claim 12 , wherein at least one of the plurality of preview images displayed in the second display region corresponds to one of the plurality of images which was displayed in the first display region and is not presently displayed in the first display region. 14. The control method according to claim 12 , further comprising generating a preview image to be displayed in the second display region based on the image displayed in the first display region. 15. The control method according to claim 14 , wherein, when a button, displayed, is selected by a user while an image is displayed in the first display region, generating includes generating the preview image corresponding to the image displayed in the first display region. 16. The control method according to claim 12 , wherein the image data, which corresponds to at least one image selected by a user from among the plurality of preview images arranged in the second display region, further corresponds to the image displayed in the first display region. 17. The control method according to claim 12 , wherein the image data, which corresponds to at least one image selected by a user from among the plurality of preview images arranged in the second display region, further corresponds to the at least one image arranged in the second display region. 18. The control method according to claim 12 , further comprising selecting all of the plurality of preview images arranged in the second display region in accordance with an instruction of a user. 19. The control method according to claim 12 , further comprising deselecting all of images selected by the user from among the plurality of preview images arranged in the second display region in accordance with an instruction of a user. 20. The control method according to claim 12 , further comprising performing selection and deselection of each image from among the plurality of preview images arranged in the second display region in accordance with an instruction of a user. 21. The control method according to claim 12 , further comprising externally receiving image data corresponding to an image to be displayed in the first display region, in accordance with an operation of a user. 22. The control method according to claim 12 , wherein an image, which is selected by a user from among the plurality of images displayed in the first display region, is a printable image which is allowed to be printed, and an image, which is not selected by a user from among the plurality of images displayed in the first display region, is a non-printable image which is not allowed to be printed. 23. A display system comprising: a display unit configured to display a screen including a first display region in which a plurality of images are displayed one by one and a second display region in which a plurality of preview images, of a plurality of images selected by a user from among the plurality of images which have been displayed in the first display region, are arranged; and a transmission unit configured to transmit, to a printing apparatus, image data corresponding to at least one image selected by a user from among the plurality of preview images arranged in the second display region. 24. The display system according to claim 23 , wherein at least one of the plurality of preview images displayed in the second display region corresponds to one of the plurality of images which was displayed in the first di
