1. A printing apparatus that prints images on a roll paper having a number of pages based on a job, the printing apparatus comprising:
one or more memories that store instructions; and
one or more processors configured to execute the instructions stored in the one or more memories to:
perform control to print one or a plurality of image sets, each formed of a partition page image and a content image, on the roll paper based on a job, wherein the partition page image contains a value of the number of pages as partition information;
wherein, in a case where the printing apparatus executes printing based on a first job that is a job in which the partition information is set, control is performed to determine, based on a remaining amount of the roll paper loaded on the printing apparatus, a first number that is a number of image sets that can be printed on the roll paper without interruption from among the image sets based on the first job to print the determined first number of image sets on the roll paper loaded on the printing apparatus,
in a case where the first number of image sets are part of image sets among the image sets based on the first job, control is performed to determine a second number that is a number of image sets that can be printed on the roll paper after the first number of image sets are printed without interruption and is from among the image sets based on a second job that is a job in which the partition information is set and that is different from the first job to further print the determined second number of image sets on the roll paper loaded on the printing apparatus at a timing that is after the first number of image sets are printed and is before the roll paper loaded on the printing apparatus is replaced with a new roll paper, and
after the first number of image sets and the second number of image sets are printed on the roll paper loaded on the printing apparatus, and the roll paper loaded on the printing apparatus is replaced with the new roll paper, control is performed to print, on the new roll paper, an image set that has not been printed yet among the image sets based on the first job and an image set that has not been printed yet among the image sets based on the second job.
