A document creation method includes: specifying a missing unit in document information divided into units; and specifying a unit serving as a reference for inserting the missing unit.

An information processing apparatus includes a section that detects posts of an output instruction and an output target from a user in a chat room, a registration section that registers the output target as an output target corresponding to the user or the chat room, in a case where identification information of an output device is not registered for the user or the chat room when the post of the output target is detected, and a control section that performs control of inputting a post of requesting registration of the output device from the user into the chat room in a case where the identification information of the output device is not registered for the user or the chat room when the post of the output instruction is detected.

In an approach to governance of document printing, one or more computer processors receive a request from a user to print a document. One or more computer processors identify a content and a context of the document. Based on the content and the context of the document, one or more computer processors determine whether the request complies with one or more printing policies. Responsive to determining the request complies with the one or more printing policies, one or more computer processors determine one or more format attributes of the document. Based on the one or more format attributes, one or more computer processors determine whether the document format is optimized, where optimization minimizes use of one or more printing supplies. Responsive to determining the document format is not optimized, one or more computer processors provide a recommendation for optimizing the document format to the user.

A display apparatus includes: a first acquisition portion acquiring progress of a plurality of processes for print product produced through the processes based on information transmitted from a printer; a second acquisition portion acquiring the progress in response to an operation of a user to proceed with the production; and a display portion displaying in a distinguishable manner on a display, an automatic transition process and a manual transition process included in the processes, the automatic transition process automatically transitioning to the subsequent process based on the information transmitted from the printer and a manual transition process manually transitioning to the subsequent process in response to the operation.

An information processing apparatus includes a printer driver configured to generate a print command compliant with a predetermined printing protocol based on print data obtained from a data generation application, one or more extension modules configured to generate a print command compliant with another printing protocol different from the predetermined printing protocol, a storage unit configured to store information associating the one or more extension modules to be used for generating the print command compliant with said another printing protocol with the printer driver, and an output unit configured to output the print command compliant with said another printing protocol, the print command being obtained through processing of the print data obtained by the printer driver, and the processing being performed by the one or more modules indicated by the information.

A supporting program stores, in a memory, a parameter list in which identification information of a print queue implemented in an OS and print parameters are associated with each other. In the OS, a plurality of print queues for a single printer can be implemented. When one of the plurality of print queues is selected and a general-use printing program receives a printing instruction to cause the printer to perform printing, the supporting program is activated. When a printing instruction is received while one of the plurality of print queues being selected, the supporting program reads out a print parameter corresponding to the selected print queue and sets the read out print parameter as a print parameter used for printing in accordance with the printing instruction.

Embodiments of the disclosure provide a method capable of executing all print jobs stored in an image processing apparatus and associated with a user without troubling the user. A button capable of executing all print jobs associated with a login user is displayed on a display unit of the image processing apparatus.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium stores computer-readable instructions executable by a processor of an information processing device including a user interface. The instructions are configured to, when executed by the processor, cause the information processing device to accept via the user interface an operation for performing eco-printing, obtain related information on a plurality of setting items for the eco-printing, and when accepting the operation for performing the eco-printing, automatically set print parameters for the plurality of setting items for the eco-printing, based on the obtained related information.

A print control system is provided. The system comprises an image forming unit to form an image onto a sheet; an image reader to read an image of the sheet; an inspection unit to inspect a quality by comparing the image read by the image reader with a reference image. The system forms an image by the image forming unit using a first print setting defined in advance when registering the reference image, registers, as the reference image, an image read by the reading unit, and forms an image by the image forming unit using a second print setting defined in advance when manufacturing a print product.

A print processing system includes an image processing apparatus configured to execute print processing, and a client apparatus that includes a class driver configured to convert data as a target of the print processing into print data and to transmit a printing command for causing the image processing apparatus to execute the print processing by using a standard function to the image processing apparatus together with the print data, wherein the client apparatus includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire print setting information that specifies a print setting included in the image processing apparatus from the image processing apparatus via the class driver, a display unit configured to display a print setting screen based on the print setting information acquired by the acquisition unit, and a transmission unit configured to transmit the print setting information about a print setting selected by a user on the print setting screen.
