A cloud print service specifies a job release method as a job attribute. In accordance with the job attribute, a printing apparatus controls whether a secure printing is applied or printing is to be performed without holding the print job.

Printing apparatus receives print job from external apparatus without holding the print job in accordance with job attributes, print control method, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium

There is provided an application that acquires data of an icon from an external apparatus. Some embodiments provide a non-transitory storage medium storing an application that provides a print setting screen for allowing a user to make a print setting used to generate a print command provided for printing in a printer by a driver in a computer, wherein the application, when executed by the computer, causes the computer to acquire data of an icon representing the printer from an external apparatus different from the computer via a network, and display the acquired icon on a display unit of the computer.

Storage medium, computer, and method related to application for providing print setting screen

A determination is made as to whether priority is given to a print setting or a print preset by a general-purpose print service performed on an information processing apparatus. This makes it possible to resolve a conflict in settings.

Printing system, printing apparatus, method of controlling printing apparatus and information processing apparatus, and storage medium for generating a print job using a prioritized print setting

A printing apparatus includes a first acquisition unit configured to acquire information about software applicable to the printing apparatus from a management server, a notification unit configured to transmit the acquired information about the software as a device information notification to the print system, a request unit configured to issue an event request to the print system, a second acquisition unit configured to acquire information about software used for an update from the print system in a case where an event of updating the software based on an operation input to the print system is included in a response received in response to the event request, and an update unit configured to perform processing for updating the software of the printing apparatus based on the information about the software acquired by the second acquisition unit.

Printing apparatus and control method

If the printing protocol associated with a received print job is not an internet printing protocol, the number of times of printing is counted for each type of printing protocol. If the printing protocol associated with a received print job is an internet printing protocol, the number of times of printing is counted while distinguishing a transmission source application by identifying a transmission source application.

Printing apparatus capable of counting the number of times of printing, method for controlling printing apparatus, and storage medium

A printing apparatus that executes printing on a basis of print data obtained from a server system is provided. The printing apparatus transmits a notification of a state of the printing apparatus according to progress of the printing to the server system; receives from the server system a response to the notification of the state transmitted; outputs an error according to the response when the response received does not indicate transmission success and does not indicate that a load of the server system exceeds an upper limit; and continues processing without outputting an error when the response received indicates transmission success or indicates that the load of the server system exceeds the upper limit.

Printing apparatus, control method, and computer readable medium with error notification control

A printing apparatus includes a receiving unit configured to receive, from a print server that provides a logical printer associated with the printing apparatus, a print job associated with the logical printer, a print unit configured to perform printing based on the print job, and a display control unit configured to electronically display, on a display device of the printing apparatus, a two-dimensional code obtained by encoding identification information allocated to the logical printer by the print server.

Printing apparatus, control method, and program displaying 2D code with identification information allocated by print service only if printer registered to print service

A printing control apparatus includes a transmission unit configured to transmit, to a transmission destination corresponding to any one of a plurality of different regions where a predetermined cloud print service is provided, a registration request to register the printing control apparatus in the predetermined cloud print service, and a setting unit configured to set the transmission destination.

Printing control apparatus that communicates with cloud print service, control method, and storage medium

A printing apparatus includes a first receiving unit configured to receive a first print job from a print server, a second receiving unit configured to receive a second print job from an information processing apparatus within a local area network, a print unit configured to perform printing that is based on the first print job and printing that is based on the second print job, a storage unit configured to store a private key and a digital certificate, and a transmission unit configured to transmit the digital certificate to the information processing apparatus within the local area network. The digital certificate includes a public key paired with the private key, and an electronic signature created by the print server.

System includes server, printing apparatus, information processing apparatus to provide a technique for specifying a physical printer associated with a logical printer, and non-transitory storage medium

Printing system, printing apparatus, method of controlling printing apparatus and information processing apparatus, and storage medium for determining a setting to use for a print job

A printing apparatus provides information of a printer registration screen to receive an operation for registering the printing apparatus to a tenant, wherein the printer registration screen receives an operation for registering the printing apparatus to each of a plurality of tenants, and the information indicates the printing apparatus has been registered to each of the plurality of tenants, receives an instruction for registering the printing apparatus in response to an operation for registering the printing apparatus to the tenant via the printing registration screen, in association with a tenant that is managed in the first type cloud printing service, as a cloud printer that is used by a user belonging to the tenant, and requests, to the first type cloud printing service, to register the printing apparatus in association with the tenant based on an instruction received by the instruction unit.

Printing apparatus, printing system, method of registering printing apparatus, and medium

A printing system acquires device information from a printing device, transmits the device information acquired to a service providing device and registers the device information acquired, and receives registration information, from the service providing device, for the printing device registered to access the service providing device, with the registration information including an address of the cloud printing service provided by the service providing device and a signed certificate. The received registration information is transmitted to the printing device. The printing device of which the device information has been registered with the service providing device accesses the service providing device using the registration information to acquire a print job held by the service providing device and execute the acquired job.
