摘要:
An information processing apparatus for executing a printer driver that requests an image processing apparatus to perform image processing, the information processing apparatus including a processor, in communication with a memory, executing a process including executing, by a plurality of process executors, a process in response to a request from the printer driver, the process corresponding to at least one extended function to be executed on print data; storing, in a storage area, process information relating to the plurality of process executors; accepting a request for a printing process; acquiring, by the printer driver, the process information from the storage area, upon accepting the request for the printing process; and requesting, by the printer driver, at least one of the plurality of process executors to execute the process on the print data, based on the acquired process information.
摘要:
An information processing apparatus communicably connected with a printer, includes: a plurality of applications including at least a first application and a second application; a printer driver to control display of a screen for performing print settings for the printer, including a first module to accept a print request from the first application and a second module to accept a print request from the second application. The first module includes: an acquirer to acquire model identification information identifying a model of the printer currently connected with the information processing apparatus through a network; and a storage controller to store connection destination information according to the model of the printer in a storage area that is accessible from the second module. The second module displays a screen according to the model of the printer using the connection destination information read from the storage area.

摘要:
An information processing apparatus includes a print data generation part that receives, via an operating system, a print execution instruction including a file and a first print setting from the application, and generates print data; an application management part that sends a printing instruction to the application; an extended interface part other than an interface part defined by the operating system; and a print setting storing part that stores a second print setting that is input from the application management part via the extended interface part. The print data generation part changes a print setting to be used to generate the print data from the first print setting to the second print setting.
摘要:
An information processing apparatus, output system, information processing method, and an information processing program stored in a non-transitory recording medium, each of which controls interaction between an upper-level program and a lower-level program, by providing the functions of: storing output processing information relating to output processing being performed or to be performed on output data, in association with output data identification information; and sending the output processing information associated with the output data identification information to the upper-level program, in response to the output data identification information received from the upper-level program.
摘要:
A set of files making up a plug-in that is to be added to a base printer driver is stored all together in a single plug-in storage file. While no plug-in is added, the plug-in storage file is kept empty. A file making up the printer driver and the plug-in storage file are included as printer driver configuration files, and are described in a file list in a driver information file. When the printer driver is copied to a client computer, the files making up the printer driver and the plug-in storage file are transferred, following the descriptions in the file list.

摘要:
An information processing apparatus includes an operation receiving unit for receiving an operation; a setting receiving unit for displaying a setting condition for printing or transmission and receiving a change to the setting condition, after the operation receiving unit receives an instruction to start printing or transmitting; and a storage unit in which the setting condition is stored by the setting receiving unit via an operating system by using, as a key, identification information acquired by the setting receiving unit, the identification information identifying a printing or transmission process and being generated by the operating system according to the instruction to start printing or transmitting. An image processing unit acquires the identification information from the operating system, and reads, from the storage unit, the setting condition using the identification information as a key, and converts document data into print data of a printing device based on the setting condition.
摘要:
A print control method for an information processing apparatus connected to an image forming apparatus via a network, includes acquiring print data and print settings corresponding to the print data from one or more applications; determining whether a process related to a scaling process is included in the print settings; comparing, when determining that the process related to a scaling process is included in the print settings, a processing capacity of the image forming apparatus with a processing capacity of the information processing apparatus; and determining whether the process related to the scaling process is to be performed by the image forming apparatus or by the information processing apparatus based on the comparison result.
