Abstract:
A user terminal apparatus includes a storage unit to store a hybrid operation system to support a plurality of different types of user interfaces (UIs), a control unit to execute the hybrid operation system, a display unit to selectively display one of the plurality of UIs depending on the execution of the hybrid operation system, an interface unit connected to an image forming apparatus, and an input unit to receive a user command to check status information of the image forming apparatus, wherein the UIs include a first UI that can communicate with the image forming apparatus through a port monitor, and when the user command is input, the control unit stops a function of the port monitor, receives the status information of the image forming apparatus by executing an agent program that is stored in the storage unit, and displays the received status information in the first UI.
Abstract:
The present inventive concept relates to a print controlling terminal apparatus, print controlling method, image forming apparatus and method of controlling the same. The print controlling terminal apparatus according to the present inventive concept includes a user interface unit which inputs a set value determining whether or not to activate a state information analyzing operation of the image forming apparatus, storage unit which stores the input set value, print data generating unit which generates print data including the set value and spools the generated print data to the image forming apparatus, and a control unit which generates a notification message using the received state information according to the set value.
