An information processing apparatus includes: a memory that stores a plurality of applications; and circuitry to display on a display, a screen including notification information on a function of a particular application of the plurality of applications, and to activate the particular application in response to an input of a request to execute the function on the screen. The particular application configures the circuitry to execute the function in accordance with guide information defining one or more setting items to be set to execute the function and an order of setting the setting items.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and recording medium

An information processing apparatus includes a memory to store information of a display status of setting item buttons used for selecting corresponding setting items on a screen, and information of at least one of the setting items corresponding to an error that occurs during information processing as an error-occurred setting item, and circuitry to detect occurrence of the error during the information processing, determine whether a setting item button corresponding to the error-occurred setting item is displayed or not on the screen when the occurrence of the error is detected during the information processing, and display the setting item button corresponding to the error-occurred setting item on the screen based on a determination that the setting item button corresponding to the error-occurred setting item is not displayed on the screen when the occurrence of the error is detected during the information processing.

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

An image forming apparatus includes a display and circuitry that controls the display to display multiple display components corresponding to multiple setting items, accepts a setting value for a first setting item through corresponding one of the multiple display components, based on a determination indicating a first setting item is one of a preregistered combination of setting items to be configured en bloc, modifies setting values for respective ones of the preregistered combination of setting items based on the accepted setting value for the first setting item, determines whether any one of the multiple display components corresponding to the modified setting values for the preregistered combination of setting items is configured as non-displayed, and based on a determination indicating any one of the multiple display components corresponding to the modified setting values is configured as non-displayed, outputs a notification indicating the setting value for the non-displayed setting item is modified.

Image forming apparatus, image forming system, and image forming method

An information processing system includes a first information processing device and a second information processing device that operates based on a request received from the first information processing device. The first information processing device includes a processor configured to implement a storage unit that stores a portion of information stored in the second information processing device, and a first communication control unit that transmits a job execution request to the second information processing device based on the stored information. When a communication connection between the first and second information processing devices is not established, the transmission of the job execution request is controlled to transmit the job execution request based on the portion of the information after the communication connection is established. The second information processing device executes a predetermined job based on the job execution request received from the first information processing device.

Information processing system, information processing apparatus, information processing method, and information processing program

An information processing system includes a first information processing apparatus and a second information processing apparatus. The first information processing apparatus includes an acquisition part creating a first information request, a first transmitter transmitting the first information request to the second information processing apparatus, a first receiver receiving the first information from the second information processing apparatus, a display controller controlling displaying the first information, and a first storage storing second information, the display controller controlling displaying the second information when the second information is stored in the first storage. The second information processing apparatus includes a second storage storing the first information, a second receiver receiving the first information request, an extracting part extracting the first information from the second storage in response to the first information request, and a second transmitter transmitting the first information to the first information processing apparatus.

Information processing system, information processing apparatus, information processing method, and recording medium

An image forming apparatus includes an accumulating unit to accumulate documents, a document selecting unit to receive selection of the accumulated documents to be printed, a screen displaying unit to display on a display unit a printing condition setting screen including default values for selecting plural of the accumulated documents and a list of setting items when the selection received by the document selecting unit indicates plural of the accumulated documents, a reset receiving unit to receive selection of the setting item to be changed and resetting of a default value of the selected setting item, a reset control unit to change a content of the setting item into a resetting content when the setting item is resettable or allow the content to remain unchanged when the setting item is not resettable, and a printing unit to print the accumulated document, the setting item of which is reset.

Image forming apparatus and recording medium

A preview image of image data to be output is generated, in response to a request from an operation device, and can be displayed via the operation device. A first preview image of the image data is generated based on an output setting for outputting the image data. The first preview image is stored in a storage device. The output setting can be changed based on a changing request from the operation device. It is determined, in response to a second preview request from the operation device, after sending the first preview image, whether the first preview image is to be regenerated, based on the changed output setting. The first preview image stored in the storage device can be sent when the first preview image is not to be regenerated, for example, when a second preview image is not to be generated.

Image output apparatus, preview image generating method, and storage medium

An image forming apparatus includes a receiving unit; a data saving unit; a drawing data generating unit; a log storage unit that stores a processing log; an image forming unit; and a data management unit. The data management unit, when the print job is analyzed as a time designated print job; causes the data generating unit to generate the drawing data; causes the data saving unit to save the drawing data; that, when analyzed printing being enabled at the designated print time, causes the image forming unit to perform image formation based on the drawing data and causes the log storage unit to store therein a processing log; and that, when printing is analyzed as disabled at the designated print time, performs processing corresponding to a print disabled state preset and causes the log storage unit to store therein a processing log about the processing.
