Abstract: There is provided an information processing apparatus comprising a memory for storing one or more programs and at least one processor that executes the programs. The information processing apparatus functions to set a page count to be printed to one sheet and determines whether an object has moved in a first direction or a second direction that is a reverse direction to the first direction. If the object has moved in the first direction, reset the page count to increase the set page count, and if the object has moved in the second direction, reset the set page count to decrease the set page count. The information processing apparatus determines whether a conflict relationship is occurring between the reset page count and another print setting, and changes the another print setting if the conflict relationship is occurring.
