An image forming system for printing a sequence of image blocks on a continuous printing sheet based on image data, includes an information processing apparatus and an image forming apparatus. A printing setting unit included by the information processing apparatus designates first information and second information. The first information indicates whether a printing order of the image blocks is to be a normal order or a reverse order. The second information indicates how many image blocks of the sequence are to be printed on each of a plurality of segments of the printing sheet. The image forming apparatus includes a cutting unit and a control unit. The cutting unit cuts the printing sheet. The control unit controls the cutting unit so as to separate the segments of the printing sheet. The control unit determines cutting positions on the printing sheet based on the first information and the second information.

A computer network system and method for printing accompanying information and prescription labels in pharmacies, comprises: a central CS; a PMS; a data transmission network through which said PMS and said central CS can communicate; wherein said PMS includes an I/O terminal, a scanner, and a first printer; wherein said PMS includes a PMS SO and a Catalina SO; said PMS SO is configured to receive and store prescription information for a prescription, and to associate a prescription identification with said prescription; said Catalina SO is configure to select accompanying information for said prescription, to format and save said accompanying information in an accompanying information print file; and said PMS is configured to print a prescription label for said prescription and said accompanying information print file.

A method and system of configuring a network using a network application of a mobile device including detecting a gesture sequence that comprises at least one gesture, in response to a user performed action. The detected gesture sequence may be indicative of network configuration rules associated with at least one network device. The method may further include receiving and storing network access credentials, and accessing a network configuration database. The network configuration database may comprise a plurality of gesture sequences and a plurality of associated tasks. The method may also include determining a match for the detected gesture sequence among the plurality of gesture sequences; determining an associated task based on the match; and performing the associated task to achieve the network configuration action. The associated task may include a network configuration action based on the network configuration rules associated with at least one network device.

An image forming apparatus that suppresses print position displacement. The image forming apparatus includes a plurality of sheet storage sections configured to store sheets. A sheet storage section to be used is selected out of the plurality of sheet storage sections. An image is formed on a sheet supplied from the selected sheet storage section and the image position is adjusted using adjustment values associated with the selected sheet storage section. When an update action performed by sheet replenishment or sheet replacement is detected for a sheet storage section, the sheet storage section for which the update action has been detected is controlled so as not to be selected by the selection unit until a predetermined time period elapses after detection of the update action.

An information processing apparatus capable of communicating with an image output apparatus stores print setting information corresponding to a print job for which print is commanded, as history information in a storage unit thereof, and displays, in a case where print using the history information is commanded, information regarding an image output apparatus that is available for use by the information processing apparatus does not correspond to part of setting values included in the history information, and a print result of print processing to be executed by the image output apparatus using the history information satisfies a predetermined condition, a print setting screen in which the information regarding the image output apparatus is reflected in an item corresponding to the part of the setting values and setting values of the history information are reflected in other items.

An information processing system, an information processing method, a non-transitory recording medium, and an information processing apparatus. The information processing system captures a plurality of images at respective locations each associated with a location where the object is managed, or a process performed on the object to be managed, generates print data of a second slip associated with the plurality of objects to be managed, the second slip being different from a first slip associated with each of the plurality of objects, and controls a display to display, based on detection of the printed second slip from the image captured by the imaging device, the plurality of objects to be managed associated with the printed second slip, as being placed at the location or the process associated with the imaging device that captured the image of the second slip.

In accordance with a user operation, an apparatus obtains one or more designated positions on an image, the one or more designated positions being one or more positions at which each of one or more designated colors designated for printing of the image is to be printed. The apparatus generates a printing file for causing a printer to print a patch of each of the one or more designated colors on a sheet at a position corresponding to each of the one or more designated positions for the designated color. The apparatus performs color verification based on a colorimetry value on the sheet having the patch printed thereon at the position corresponding to each of the one or more designated positions and a target value for the designated color corresponding to the designated position.

A colorimetric method is executed by a server that communicates with an information processing apparatus coupled to a printing apparatus and to a colorimetric device. The method includes: creating work information that includes print commanding information related to a command to print a chart image based on chart information and also includes colorimetry commanding information related to a command to perform colorimetry for the chart image; storing the work information; transmitting the print commanding information to the information processing apparatus; causing the information processing apparatus to command, according to the print commanding information, the printing apparatus to print the chart image; transmitting the colorimetry commanding information to the information processing apparatus; and acquiring colorimetry result information created as a result of the colorimetry performed for the chart image by the colorimetric device.

A print system includes an information processing apparatus that uploads a file to the server system together with identification information of a printing apparatus to be used for printing the file, and a server system that stores, in a memory, generated print code in association with information of the file and the identification information of the printing apparatus to be used for printing the file, receives the print code and the identification information of the printing apparatus that have been transmitted from the printing apparatus, and searches for the stored file that is associated with the received print code and the identification information and generates the print job based on the searched file. In addition, a printing apparatus transmits, to the server system, the inputted print code and the identification information of the printing apparatus and executes printing of the file based on the received print job.
