  • Publication number: 20240126487
    Abstract: A printer has a function of restricting a number of printing during a particular period for each user ID. When printing is performed, a computer updates a counter value of the number of printing associated with a user ID corresponding to the printing, and restricts printing corresponding to the user ID when the counter value reaches an upper limit. When an individual operator is operated in an administrator PC, the computer initializes the counter value associated with the user ID corresponding the individual operator.

  • Patent number: 11934728
    Abstract: Printing apparatus includes a controller is configured to executes holding selection processing of allowing holding in a storage device or deletion from the storage device of a storage of a print job selected by a print job selection processing to be selected by a user's input operation received via the user interface. The print job for which holding of the storage of the print job is selected is stored in the storage device in association with a holding flag. When the holding flag is associated with the print job stored in the storage device, the print job is not deleted from the storage device at a predetermined automatic deletion timing. When the holding flag is not associated with the print job stored in the storage device, the print job is deleted from the storage device at the automatic deletion timing.

  • Publication number: 20230315351
    Abstract: A printing apparatus having a print engine, a network interface, a memory, a user interface and a controller. The controller is configured to perform accumulation printing in which the controller receive selection of print data accumulated in the memory through the user interface. The controller is configured such that, for print data to which user identification information of a first user and authentication information is set, the controller causes the user interface to display selection items for such print data, while, for print data to which the user identification information for the first user is not set, the controller causes the user interface not to display the selection items for such print data. The controller is further configured to control the print engine to print the print data as selected through the user interface.
