An image processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention performs a first correction for an image based on a correction value corresponding to a step designated by an operator among a plurality of steps corresponding to a plurality of correction values used for correcting the image. The image processing apparatus stores information used for specifying a change amount of a correction value corresponding to a change of one step of the plurality of steps in a memory. The change amount can be changed, and the change amount at the time of operator's designating the step is stored. The image processing apparatus performs a second correction for the image based on the change amount of the correction value corresponding to the change of the one step that is specified by the information stored in the memory.

Image processing apparatus, image processing method, and storage medium

An information processing apparatus comprises a deciding unit which decides on a sequence for manufacturing a plurality of products using the type information of a plurality of products; and a unit which causes a print apparatus and a post-pressing apparatus to manufacture the plurality of products in accordance with the sequence decided on, wherein the deciding unit decides on the sequence such that products of the same type are manufactured consecutively by the print apparatus and the post-pressing apparatus, and furthermore, for each type of product, the deciding unit decides on the sequence using step information regarding steps for product manufacturing such that, among steps for manufacturing a plurality of parts that constitute each of the plurality of products of the same type that are consecutive in the print apparatus, steps for manufacturing the same type of part are consecutive.

Information processing apparatus, method of controlling the same, and non-transitory computer-readable medium

An information processing apparatus which transfers a print job to a lower apparatus that is included in a print system and located at a lower level in print processing, comprises: a determination unit configured to determine whether to cancel the print job; and a cancel command issuing unit configured, when the determination unit determines to cancel processing for the print job, to issue, to the lower apparatus for the print job, a cancel command to which information about a cancel reason is added.

Information processing apparatus, control method thereof, and computer-readable medium

An information processing apparatus performs layout processing on print data, performs a preview based on layout-processed print data, and stores the print data used in the preview into a print queue when actual print processing is performed, thus preventing the same print processing from being repeatedly performed.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, program, and storage medium

An information processing apparatus includes a determination unit determining whether a sheet set in a print condition is included in a list of printable sheets supported by a printing apparatus, an acquisition unit obtaining a sheet size supported by the printing apparatus if the determination unit determines that the sheet set in the print condition is not included in the list of printable sheets, and a print processing unit executing print processing based on the sheet size obtained by the acquisition unit.

Information processing apparatus, print setting method, and computer-readable medium

An information processing apparatus has a peripheral apparatus control unit which controls a peripheral apparatus and an operation control unit which controls the operation in the peripheral apparatus by using operation instructing information regarding such an operation. The peripheral apparatus control unit forms first operation instructing information having a non-hierarchical structure from operation setting information including a specific setting, sets the specific setting into a private area in the first operation instructing information, and forms second operation instructing information having a hierarchical structure and including the specific setting from the first operation instructing information.

Information processing apparatus and peripheral apparatus control method

An information processing apparatus for outputting a document to a printer. Whether or not each of a plurality of set values set for one printing condition is a set value by which a print output can be performed in the printer is discriminated. If a plurality of set values determined to be the set values by the print output can be performed in the printer exists among the plurality of set values, by deciding the set value of the printing condition according to a priority added to each of the plurality of set values, a proper print result is provided according to the printing conditions set on a distributing source side of print content.

Priority based printer setting

The invention provides a printing control apparatus having a function for performing preview displaying prior to printing document data outputted by an application program. The apparatus comprises: a generator for generating a preview image based on the document data in accordance with a print setting; and a preview display controller for displaying, together with the preview image, a user interface which displays an option in a predetermined item of a print setting within a scope corresponding to a current print setting, when the predetermined item of the print setting corresponding to the preview image is to be changed. The printing control apparatus enables printing of the document data in accordance with the print setting changed through the user interface.

Printing control apparatus and printing control method

In an image forming system, an information processing apparatus (host computer) outputs print data to a printer connected to the apparatus through an interface. The apparatus includes an interface identifying module for identifying the type of the interface, a query module for determining, based on the identified interface type, a quantization method for quantizing print data and/or a compression method, and an image processing module for performing quantization and/or compression on the print data by the determined quantization method and/or compression method. The apparatus outputs, to the printer, the print data processed by the image processing module.

Information processing apparatus for outputting image-forming print data to an external image-forming apparatus connected to the information processing apparatus through an interface among a plurality of interfaces with different data transfer speeds

Image forming system, and information processing apparatus and method

An image processing method which is used to confirm a layout when an image is formed onto a recording medium on the basis of an application. The method includes: an image forming step of forming the image based on the application; and a display control step of controlling a process for displaying the image so that a portion corresponding to the inside of the recording medium of the image formed in the image forming step and a portion corresponding to the outside of the recording medium can be discriminated.
