An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to: display on a device a flow list of flows that each include a series of processes and that have already been created; and create a flow for the device by replacing a process in a flow selected from the flow list by a user using the device with a process corresponding to device information set for the device.

A print control apparatus for controlling a printing apparatus, comprises a display control unit configured to display, on a display unit, a setting content associated with setting processing of a default printing apparatus that can be used without accepting a selection operation by a user, an acquisition unit configured to acquire information about a function of setting, as the default printing apparatus, a printing apparatus instructed to execute printing, and a restriction unit configured to restrict, if the acquired information indicates enabling of the function, display processing of the setting content so the setting content is not operated.

A print management device includes: an estimation unit that estimates a completion prediction time of a print process that is planned in advance according to a processing capability of a printing device, the estimation unit estimating, in response to occurrence of an abnormality in the printing device, the completion prediction time based on actual performance information on the processing capability from a start of printing by the printing device to the occurrence of the abnormality and a recovery time determined in advance, the recovery time being a time needed for dealing with the abnormality; and a notification unit that notifies the completion prediction time estimated by the estimation unit.

An information processing system includes a printing device and a processor. The processor is programmed to generate image data of a first form including a predetermined area having a predetermined color that is associated with one or more parts constituting a final product of a job identified by the first form, generate image data of one or more second forms that inherit the predetermined color of the predetermined area from the first form, instruct the printing device to print the first form and the one or more second forms using the image data of the first form and the one or more second forms, and manage the job identified by the first form and the one or more second forms by using the predetermined color of the predetermined area of the first form and the one or more second forms.

An information processing apparatus, a information processing method and a non-transitory computer readable medium are provided. The information processing apparatus includes a processor that acquires data by an image capturing unit, wherein an image of an operation target and an image of an authentication object are obtained from the data, displays the image of the operation target and the image of the authentication object simultaneously in different display areas based on the data, and performs a display according to a result of authentication based on a combination of the operation target and the authentication object.

A printing apparatus includes a print head, a conveyance device and a control device configured to: obtain image data each corresponding to a respective divided image; generate print data, including combining at least two lines of a plurality of lines obtained by dividing the divided image; print the print image based on the print data; determine whether to perform printing based on next print data after performing the printing based on one print data; if yes, stop printing of a predetermined number of lines from an end of the one print data when performing the printing based on the one print data; and combine a first line of the one print data and a second line of the next print data, the number of the first and the second lines corresponding to the predetermined number of the lines.

A print management device includes a control unit that performs a control for displaying of information indicating a spare capacity of at least one printing device based on a print plan and a print status of the at least one printing device that is performing printing. The print plan is derived based on capability information of the at least one printing device.

An information processing apparatus includes: a processor configured to: when performing control of outputting a file from a storage unit in accordance with a request from a using user, issue second identification information to the using user, the file having been stored by a registering user in the storage unit, the file being associated with first identification information for identifying the file, the second identification information to be used for recording information related to use of the file; and upon receipt of the second identification information from the using user, perform control of recording the information related to the use of the file.

A control method of an information processing apparatus on which an expansion application configured to expand a function of print data generation software configured to generate print data runs, is provided. The control method comprises obtaining attribute data on a printing apparatus, the attribute data being output from the printing apparatus, obtaining data indicating a print function, and adding information related to a specific function based on attribute information included in the obtained attribute data if information indicating the specific function is not included in the obtained data indicating the print function. A setting screen including a setting item of the specific function is displayed based on the added information related to the specific function.

The disclosure more appropriately creates a product of printing closer to the target state. A printing system (10) that creates a product of printing includes a printer (16) that is a printing apparatus that executes a printing step, a steaming machine (18) that is a device for a predetermined step that is a device that executes a predetermined step, and a control device (12); where the control device (12) acquires printed matter information that is information indicating a state of a printed matter obtained by performing the printing step by the printer (16), and adjusts a condition of a step to be executed in the steaming machine (18) based on information indicating a state of the target product and the printed matter information such that a product in a state closer to a state indicated by target product information is obtained.
