  • Patent number: 10218874
    Abstract: An information processing system includes a first information processing device and a second information processing device that operates based on a request received from the first information processing device. The first information processing device includes a processor configured to implement a storage unit that stores a portion of information stored in the second information processing device, and a first communication control unit that transmits a job execution request to the second information processing device based on the stored information. When a communication connection between the first and second information processing devices is not established, the transmission of the job execution request is controlled to transmit the job execution request based on the portion of the information after the communication connection is established. The second information processing device executes a predetermined job based on the job execution request received from the first information processing device.

  • Patent number: 10165135
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus is provided that includes a memory storing a program, and a processor configured to execute the program to implement a process of determining whether a prohibited setting item is included among a plurality of setting items corresponding to a plurality of display components that are arranged in an image for displaying a setting screen on a display device. The prohibited setting item corresponds to a setting item that is prohibited from being set up in combination with a selected setting item for which a value has been set up in response to an operation made with respect to a selected display component corresponding to the selected setting item. If the prohibited setting item is included among the plurality of setting items, the processor further implements a process of changing the position of a non-configurable display component corresponding to the prohibited setting item within the image.
