Original Abstract Submitted

A printing apparatus comprises a first discharge unit configured to discharge a printing medium on which printing has been performed; and a second discharge unit configured to discharge a printing medium on which printing has been performed. A determination unit is configured to, in a case where the first discharge unit is instructed to be a discharge destination of a printing medium, determine whether to discharge the printing medium from the first discharge unit based on a predetermined condition. An identification unit is configured to, in a case where the determination unit determines not to discharge the printing medium from the first discharge unit, identify alternative processing previously instructed by a user. An execution unit is configured to execute the alternative processing identified by the identification unit.
