A printing system is arranged so that each time a storage button disposed on an operation panel of a printer is operated, an interrupt event transferred from the printer to the computer is detected at the computer, and in accordance with the detected interrupt event, image data in a memory card mounted on a card slot of the printer is stored on a hard disk of the computer, and that each time a print start button disposed on the operation panel of the printer is operated, an interrupt event transferred from the printer to the computer is detected, and in accordance with the detected interrupt event, image data read from the memory card and image data stored on the hard disk of the computer is both printed.

Printing system, printing system control method, program and storage medium

To display a print preview to which an operating instruction from an operation panel provided for an external operating apparatus, an interruption event which is transferred from the external operating apparatusto a host computeris detected every instruction of the operation panel provided for the external operating apparatus, image data which is read out from a memory card which can be loaded into the external operating apparatusand a print setting which is set are obtained in accordance with the detected interruption event, and a preview display unitcontrols a print preview display in which the print setting has been reflected to a display device of the host computerand an updating display of the print preview display.

Print system and print control method

To enable simple and detailed confirmation of an operation instruction from an operation panel provided to a printer, each time an instruction is given using a preview button in the operation panel of the printer, an interruption event transferred from the printer to a host computer is detected, and in accordance with the detected interruption event, image data read out from a memory card attached to the printer, and a print setting to be set, are obtained. A preview display unit controls a print preview display reflecting the print setting in real time to a display device of the host computer, and also controls an update display of the print preview display.

Print system, information processing device and control method for the same, printer and control method for the same, storage medium, and program

Disclosed is an information processing apparatus for implementing a print preview display of print data that is to be printed, the apparatus including an acquisition unit for acquiring amount of offset of a page in a print preview, a preview image generating unit for generating a print preview image of the print data, and a preview display control unit for causing the preview image display, which is generated by the preview image generating unit, to be offset and displayed for every sheet of paper in a case where the print data is to be printed on a plurality of sheets of paper, based upon amount of offset acquired by the acquisition unit. Also disclosed is an information processing apparatus for implementing a print preview display of print data that is to be printed, the apparatus including an image creating unit for creating preview images obtained by superimposing images of sheets of paper, on which the print data is to be printed, upon offsetting the images of the sheets of paper by a specified amount of offset, and a display unit for displaying the preview images created by the image creating unit.
