Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes: a display unit; an input unit; and a control unit, wherein the control unit displays a new second input page on the display unit when an input for paging in a first direction is performed while a first or last page of a first input page in which a handwriting input is performed is displayed, the second input page is not left and the first input page is set as a first or last input page when an input for paging in a second direction is performed while no handwriting input is performed in the second input page displayed, and the second input page in which a handwriting input is performed is left when the input for paging in the second direction is performed while the handwriting input is performed in the second input page displayed.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer readable storage medium stores therein a distributed printing control program executed in a system to perform distributed printing by outputting a specified number of sets of paper sheets by using plural image forming apparatuses, where the number of the sets is instructed by a job. The program causes an apparatus belonging to the system to function as a control section. The control section divides the job into plural jobs, where each of the jobs causes one of the image forming apparatuses to eject plural sets of paper sheets shifted in alternate directions such that, when sets of paper sheets ejected by the plural image forming apparatuses are stacked up together, all the sets of paper sheets are shifted in alternate directions to enable each of the sets to be separated from others. The control section further subjects the divided jobs to the plural image forming apparatuses.
