| 20090109475 | DATA PROCESSING APPARATUS AND DATA PROCESSING METHOD - In order to display the more detailed print status of an electronic document having a tree structure, information about the tree structure is added to a print command. Furthermore, for information management, the information about the tree structure is associated with a corresponding page. | 04-30-2009 |
| 20090265482 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD THEREFOR, AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM - An information processing apparatus connected with a peripheral apparatus via a communication line includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire information about a destination of the peripheral apparatus, and a provision unit configured to provide functions for at least one of managing and controlling the peripheral apparatus according to the destination information acquired by the acquisition unit. The provision unit is configured to refer to information indicating a function to be provided according to the destination of the peripheral apparatus and to provide a function for at least one of managing and controlling the peripheral apparatus. | 10-22-2009 |
| 20100220354 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD AND PROGRAM FOR CONTROLLING SAME - Upon receiving a job-end event from a printer, a data transfer unit executes job-end processing for completing processing relating to a print job. A communication control unit monitors the processing status of the data transfer unit notifies the job management unit of end of the print job after it has been determined, as a result of monitoring, that the job-end processing has been completed. | 09-02-2010 |

| 20080309979 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, PRINTING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, PRINT PROCESSING METHOD, STORAGE MEDIUM, AND PROGRAM - When a printer starts a printing operation using a rolled sheet having IC chips, it is determined whether an error occurred while an IC chip writing device writes information to the IC chips. First page information specifying a page region in which an error occurred and second page information specifying a page region which has been subjected to the printing operation using the printer at a time of occurrence of the error are transmitted to a host computer. Then, recovery information generated using the host computer is obtained, and a print restarting position of a recording medium is controlled so that an information writing position at the time of occurrence of the error corresponds to a position in which the printing operation is restarted. Thereafter, the printing operation is restarted from the printing restarting position in accordance with the recovery information. | 12-18-2008 |
| 20090116057 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM - A user efficiently prints a book as desired during the generation of a job. When a form is assigned a flag indicating a last page of the book, a page containing the form assigned the flag is set as the last page of the book and is added to a number of pages that have already been drawn to calculate the total number of pages, and the number of blank pages necessary to place the page containing the form assigned the flag on the last page of the book is determined. | 05-07-2009 |
| 20090257087 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM FOR STORING PROGRAM - An information processing apparatus configured to generate a print job to execute bookbinding printing is provided. The information processing apparatus includes an identifying unit configured to identify a position of a pre-printed sheet where a page to be arranged on a background image of the pre-printed sheet is printed at the time of execution of the bookbinding printing, a selecting unit configured to select the pre-printed sheet to be used in the bookbinding printing from a plurality of different pre-printed sheets set in the printer so that data indicating content of the page to be arranged on the background image of the pre-printed sheet is printed at the position identified by the identifying unit, and a generating unit configured to generate the print job so that the printer prints the data using the pre-printed sheet selected by the selecting unit. | 10-15-2009 |
| 20100110482 | PRINTING SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND PRINTING APPARATUS, AND CONTROL METHOD AND PROGRAM FOR THE SAME - A printing apparatus receives a print job from an information processing apparatus. It is determined whether the received print job is a first print job or a second print job. If the results of the determination indicate that the received print job is a first print job, printing onto a printing medium is executed based on the first print job. However, if the received print job is a second print job, the second print job is stored in a storage medium. Then, if a printing instruction for printing the second print job containing printing settings and stored in the storage medium has been made, printing based on the second print job is executed onto a printing medium onto which printing based on the first print job has already been executed, and a process for adding a processing agent to that printing medium is then executed. | 05-06-2010 |
| 20100149588 | FORM CREATION METHOD AND PRINT CONTROL APPARATUS - A print control apparatus of a printing system, which performs overlay printing using a pre-created form, lets a user designate a field in the form for data to be inserted into the field in the overlay printing. In executing overlay printing of plural pages, the data to be inserted into the designated field is analyzed to determine whether or not one same data is repetitive. In a case where it is determined that the one same data is repetitive, the form is not created, but in a case where it is determined that the one same data is not repetitive, the form including the data is created. | 06-17-2010 |
