Abstract: An optical transmission apparatus of an embodiment is an apparatus for redundantly transmitting a multiplexed signal obtained by multiplexing N (N is an integer of 2 or greater) optical signals having different wavelengths, the apparatus including: a first demultiplexing unit to which a first multiplexed signal is input, the first demultiplexing unit configured to demultiplex the input first multiplexed signal into the N optical signals; N first detection units to which the N optical signals demultiplexed by the first demultiplexing unit are respectively input, each of the N first detection units configured to detect presence or absence of deterioration of a corresponding input optical signals of the input optical signals based on a signal level of the corresponding input optical signal; a second demultiplexing unit to which a second multiplexed signal is input, the second demultiplexing unit configured to demultiplex the input second multiplexed signal into the N optical signals; N second detection units to

Abstract: A printer driver and an advanced UI application are associated with each other during installation, and the advanced UI application is activated in a different process using a COM when the printer driver is called.

Abstract: In a system having a client and a server according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the server adds to a database of a server of a first printer driver a path of a logical printer corresponding to a second printer driver. The path of the logical printer is added to the database of the first printer driver of a client by the path of the logical printer being added to the database of the server. And then, the client installs the second printer driver based on the path of the logical printer added to the database of the client by the first printer driver being operated.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention include: storing a setting value corresponding to a first function belonging to a job scope or a document scope included in a print ticket on a storage area; when there is a print ticket for a page among a plurality of pages included in the job, comparing the setting value corresponding to the first function included in the print ticket for the page with the stored the setting value; and, when the compared setting values are different from each other, issuing a control code for separation, and generating a second command for controlling the printing according setting values corresponding to a plurality of functions included in the print ticket for the page.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention determines whether there is a setting value that belongs a target category and can be set in combination with another setting value and changes an input setting value that has been input via a print setting screen and has been determined not to be able to be set in combination with the other setting value to the setting value that can be set in combination with the other setting value on the basis of a result of the determination.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus operates in one of two modes. If it operates in a first mode, a first filter transmits print data to a second filter, and a third filter receives the print data from the second filter. If it operates in a second mode, the first filter transmits the print data to the second filter and stores the print data in a memory, and the third filter obtains the print data from the memory.
