The method includes: acquiring plural sets of setting information, each of which is the setting information registered in each of the plurality of image forming apparatuses in association with the name thereof; determining whether or not at least two of the names assigned to the plural sets of setting information are cognominal; and displaying a message, indicating a fact that the same name is assigned to at least two of the plural sets of the setting information, when the names are cognominal. | 05-28-2009 |
20090153891 | DATA PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND COMPUTER READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM STORED WITH PROCESSING PROGRAM - In merging the printing data of the merger source to the printing data of the merger destination, the setting information concerning the tab sheets are identified from the both printing data and the aligning process is executed for aligning the tab setting information of the both printing data. For example, the tab positions are changed and aligned in such a way that the tab positions vary sequentially from the start side of pages. | 06-18-2009 |
20090316190 | IMAGE FORMING SYSTEM, IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, PRINT SERVER, IMAGE FORMING METHOD, AND COMPUTER READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM STORED WITH IMAGE FORMING PROGRAM - If a user's instruction concerning at least one of print interruption and print cancellation is received by one of a plurality of printers while a print job is being executed split among the plurality of printers, a command for causing other printer that is executing printing processes based on the print job corresponding to the printing to execute a processes corresponding to the instruction is issued from the one of the plurality of printers. | 12-24-2009 |
20100019436 | TAB SHEET INSERTION APPARATUS - An image forming apparatus has a tab sheet supply unit and a control unit. The tab sheet supply unit supplies tab sheets of an identical type from an identical sheet supply tray as a chapter tab sheet to be inserted at a breakpoint of a first level of classification of a document to be printed, as well as a section tab sheet to be inserted at a breakpoint of a second level that is a finer level of classification than the first level of classification. The control unit causes the tab sheet contained in the sheet supply tray to be discharged as an unnecessary tab sheet, if the tab position of the tab sheet to be supplied next from the sheet supply tray does not match with the tab position of the tab sheet to be inserted next during the printing of the document, until both of the tab positions match. | 01-28-2010 |
20100033758 | IMAGE FORMING SYSTEM AND IMAGE FORMING METHOD - An image forming system wherein, when there is an instruction to print a plurality of copies of the same image, a plurality of copies to be printed are allocated to each of a plurality of printers and distributed printing is performed, with this image forming system including a distributed print control device wherein, if it has been determined that confirmation printing in which each of a plurality of image forming apparatus prints only one copy cannot be performed normally in at least one of the printers, a plurality of copies to be printed are allocated to each of the printers having been determined to have performed normal confirmation printing, out of a plurality of printers, whereby distributed printing is performed. | 02-11-2010 |
20110085201 | PRINTING SYSTEM, PRINTING METHOD, AND PRINTING CONTROL APPARATUS - The printing system according to the present invention has a number-of-pages accepting part for accepting user-specified number of pages, which is referred to as splitting unit for splitting a document consisting of a plurality of pages; and a control part for controlling a printer output operation of the document in such a way that each of the split documents obtained by splitting the document from the first page sequentially in the splitting unit will undergo printer output process configured via a printing setting screen. | 04-14-2011 |
20110199648 | CONTROL PROGRAM AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - Disclosed is an image forming apparatus, which makes it possible to establish the register mark printing function easily and securely to print the register mark under the condition in conformity with the page arranging mode. The apparatus includes: a display section that displays a page-arranging function setting screen from which a page arranging mode is settable, and a register-mark printing function setting screen from which a kind and a printing condition of the register mark are settable; a storage section that stores a table in which the page arranging mode and the printing condition are correlated with each other; and a setting control section that specifies the printing condition of the register mark, corresponding to the current page arranging mode, while referring to the table stored in the storage section, to display the printing condition above-specified onto the register-mark printing function setting screen as a default printing condition. | 08-18-2011 |
