Abstract: After an editing application outputs a print instruction to a general-use printing program to cause a printer to execute printing of an image and the general-use printing program generates print data based on the print instruction, a supporting program causes a PC to identify a printer to be caused to execute a print job corresponding to the print instruction, to obtain status information by inquiring of the identified printer a status of the print job, and to provide the status information obtained from the printer for a the editing application.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable recoding medium for an information processing apparatus stores instructions realizing a computer program. The program is installed in the information processing apparatus using printer model information coinciding with connected printer information indicating a model of the printer and sheet type information indicating the sheet selected by a user. The program causes, when executed by the controller, the information processing apparatus to determine, from among a plurality of pieces of display information, one piece of the plurality of pieces of display information which is associated with the printer model information and the sheet type information used to install the program as determined display information to be displayed, obtain image data, generate print data based on the obtained image data, output the generated print data and output the determined display information.

Abstract: An installer customizing system includes a server and a requesting device. The server is configured to perform receiving a print setting parameter to be associated with an installation package of an print software from the requesting device, obtaining the installation package, obtaining guarantee information guaranteeing a custom installation package which is the obtained installation package associated with the received print setting parameter, storing the custom installation package including the obtained guarantee information in a memory, and transmitting obtaining information enabling the requesting device to obtain the custom installation package stored in the memory to the requesting device.

Abstract: There is provided a non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program for a computer of an information processing apparatus, the program causing the computer of the information processing apparatus to carry out: acquiring an image data as a print object; generating a print data, which is an image data for printing, after determining whether or not to change a direction of the acquired image data based on a double-side print setting, and changing the direction of the image data in a case in which the image data is determined to change the direction; generating a preview data, which is an image data for previewing, from the print data after rechanging the once-changed direction of the image data in a case in which the print data is generated after changing the direction of the image data; and displaying the generated preview data onto the information processing apparatus.

Abstract: A print control apparatus configured to control a plurality of types of printers, the print control apparatus including: a storage part storing a printer type, a function of the printer type, and a correspondence between the printer type and the function of the printer type; an acquisition part, which acquires identification information for identifying at least the printer type from the printer, and the acquisition part acquires the function corresponding to the printer type identified based on the identification information from the storage part, and a display part displaying an operation screen corresponding to the function acquired by the acquisition part.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer readable medium has a universal driver executable on a computer. The universal driver includes instructions for: selecting a device for executing a function from connected devices according to an input from a user; sending a request to the operating system to set a communication port for communication with the selected device as a specified port; storing port identification information of a communication port for communication with the selected device and associated with the user in a memory; determining whether port identification information of the specified communication port matches the port identification information of the communication port associated with the user; sending a control command to the device to execute the function via the specified communication port according to a result of the determination indicating a match; and notifying the user of a different port being set as a specified port according to a result indicating a non-match.
