Abstract: An information processing apparatus comprises a storage. The information processing apparatus starts an installer to install a printer driver on the storage. The installer comprises: a registration screen controller that displays a print setting registration screen about a print setting settable at the printer driver; an installation default generating part that generates an installation default print setting about at least one print setting item based on operation for print setting registration on the print setting registration screen by a user; and an output part that outputs the installation default print setting to the printer driver at the time of installation of the printer driver. The printer driver comprises a print setting managing part that stores the installation default print setting output from the installer into a first storage region in the storage, and manages the stored installation default print setting, the first storage region being a region not rewritable.
