Abstract: A print control method that is capable of canceling the unprintable state without troubling a user. An image forming apparatus performs a print process according to print data transmitted from an information processing apparatus by the print control method. An anomaly detection step detects anomaly in a print related process, which is relevant to the print process, under execution by the information processing apparatus. A state shifting step stops the print process under execution by the image forming apparatus, and makes the image forming apparatus shift to a printable state for preparing a new print process that is different from the print process that the image forming apparatus is executing when anomaly is detected in the print related process. A reboot step reboots the information processing apparatus in response to the shift of the image forming apparatus to the printable state.

Abstract: A printing system comprises: a printing unit configured to print an image on a sheet; and a control unit configured to control to perform creasing at a first pressure at a portion, corresponding to an edge of a spine cover, of the sheet on which the printing unit has printed the image, and perform creasing at a second pressure different from the first pressure at a portion of the sheet that corresponds to a hinge.

Abstract: A printing system includes a control unit configured to control an image forming unit to form an image on a sheet based on print setting information included in received job setting information, control a post-processing unit to execute a post-process corresponding to a designated type, and control a creasing unit.

Abstract: A sheet processing apparatus operable to perform creasing processing on media, and a method of controlling the same, accept an offset position of a crease for folding of a cover of a bookbinding product which is a length from an edge of a spine of the bookbinding product, and acquire a position of the crease for folding corresponding to the cover using at least a size of the cover, the offset position, and a thickness of the bookbinding product. Based on the acquired position of the crease, creasing processing is executed on the cover.

Abstract: A printing apparatus is configured to, when a specific type of sheet has been designated by the user as a sheet to be replenished, specify a storage unit to be replenished with the specific type of sheet based on information about the sheet used by the print job now being executed and the sheets going to be used by queued print jobs, and information about the sheets that are stored in a plurality of storage units.

Abstract: A control method for controlling a printing apparatus and allowing a user to easily examine a variation of a printed image occurring before and after print interruption is provided. The control method includes printing an image on a sheet, discharging the sheet having the image printed thereon by the printing unit onto a first stacking unit, interrupting, upon receiving an instruction from a user, a print operation performed by the printing unit, and performing, upon receiving an instruction from the user, control so that a sheet having a predetermined image printed thereon by the printing unit is discharged onto a second stacking unit before the print operation performed by the printing unit is interrupted, and a sheet having the predetermined image printed thereon by the printing unit is discharged onto the second stacking unit after the print operation performed by the printing unit is started.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a specifying unit configured to, when a user operation for instructing checking of printing is performed during printing, specify, according to a type of carbonless copy paper of a page being printed, carbonless copy paper for checking corresponding to the carbonless copy paper being printed, and an output unit configured to output the carbonless copy paper being printed and the carbonless copy paper for checking specified by the specifying unit.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a first reception unit receiving condition setting information which specifies a permission condition for permitting access to a file server and is sent from the file server when the processing apparatus transitions from a first power supply mode to a second power supply mode in which power consumption is less than that in the first power supply mode, a second reception unit receiving a process request with respect to the file server from a client computer, a determination unit determining whether the process request received by the second reception unit satisfies the permission condition specified in the condition setting information, and a transfer control unit sending a response indicating a refusal of access to the client computer without transferring the process request received by the second reception unit to the file server when the determination unit has determined that the permission condition is not satisfied.

Abstract: A printing apparatus is configured to, when a specific type of sheet has been designated by the user as a sheet to be replenished, specify a storage unit to be replenished with the specific type of sheet based on information about the sheet used by the print job now being executed and the sheets going to be used by queued print jobs, and information about the sheets that are stored in a plurality of storage units.

Abstract: An apparatus compares, when executing a job using sheets of a first size and sheets of a second size having a greater width in a sheet conveyance direction than the first size, the width in the conveyance direction of the sheets of the first size with the folding width of the sheets of the second size. The apparatus controls execution of a job based on a comparison result between the width in the conveyance direction of the sheets of the first size and the folding width of the sheets of the second size.

Abstract: A communication apparatus which is capable of easily knowing the status of image transmission/reception in IP fax communication while performing voice communication in parallel. The communication apparatus performs IP telephone communication and IP fax communication in parallel, with a partner communication apparatus via a network. When the IP fax communication is completed, a sound source-processing section of the communication apparatus notifies at least one of a handset of the communication apparatus and the partner communication apparatus of the completion of the image communication.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus determines whether a particular operation on a first file, for example, is restricted or not. The information processing apparatus also restricts the particular operation on a second file related to the first file if the particular operation on the first file is restricted.
