A printing system includes a printing device having a digital front end (DFE) and at least one client device that sends print jobs to the printing device. The DFE stores a device capability file that sets forth device and print options available for the printing device. The print options include a priority value, an option type, a grouping option, a print option icon, and a preview overlay graphic. A copy of the device capability file is made available to a client application on the client device. The client application retrieves all the print information from the device capability file. The client application also presents and previews the print options using the appropriate preview graphic overlay.

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.

An information processing apparatus and non-transitory computer readable medium and for processing information are provided. The information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to: receive image data; cause a display to display the received image data; and move, in response to a user instruction, a portion of the image data from a first place to a second place on the display. The portion of the image data is a partial region of an entire region of the image data. While the portion of the image data is being moved from the first place to the second place, the portion of the image data is displayed at the first place.

An example image forming includes a print engine to form an image, a display to display a user interface window for selecting at least one of an industry or a place using the image forming apparatus, and a processor to, based on at least one of the industry or the place being selected, set an option value corresponding to the at least one of the selected industry or place as a default option value for a function of the image forming apparatus.

According to the present disclosure, there is provided an image forming apparatus including an operation device, one or more memories, and one or more processors that execute instructions to receive an instruction for registering a document in the one or more memories, register the document according to the instruction in the one or more memories, and control the operation device such that a function selection screen including a button for instructing execution of printing of the registered document is displayed, in which if the instruction received by a reception unit includes information indicating a printing valid period of the document according to the instruction, a button for instructing execution of printing of the document according to the instruction is displayed as being valid on the function selection screen in the printing valid period.

An example image forming includes a print engine to form an image, a display to display a user interface window for selecting at least one of an industry or a place using the image forming apparatus, and a processor to, based on at least one of the industry or the place being selected, set an option value corresponding to the at least one of the selected industry or place as a default option value for a function of the image forming apparatus.

An image forming apparatus includes a setting unit, a displaying unit, a receiving unit, and a printing unit. The setting unit accepts designation of source information from a user and set the accepted source information in association with an object. The displaying unit displays the object. The receiving unit receives image data from an external apparatus. The printing unit prints an image on a sheet based on the image data received by the receiving unit. Upon selection of the object displayed on the displaying unit, the printing unit prints an image on a sheet based on the image data from among the image data received by the receiving unit, that is received from an external apparatus having source information corresponding to the source information associated with the object.

An information processing apparatus includes circuitry; and a memory storing computer-executable instructions that cause the circuitry to execute receiving input of identification information for identifying a subject requesting execution of a service; and displaying, on a display, an input screen for inputting a management code associated with log information indicating execution history of a job, based on the identification information.

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to display images including one or more images of a first type and one or more images of a second type in a manner where the one or more images of the first type and the one or more images of the second type are distinguished from each other, in which the first type of image is an image for receiving execution of processing of a first apparatus alone, and the second type of image is an image for receiving execution of processing involving processing of a second apparatus other than the first apparatus in addition to processing of the first apparatus.
