  • Publication number: 20240078054
    Abstract: An information processing system includes one or more processors configured to: acquire past printing request information on a printing request received in a past, record information on a record of printing performed by a printer based on the past printing request information, and new printing request information on a newly received printing request; and present a candidate for paper to be used for printing related to the new printing request information based on the past printing request information, information included in the record information and related to paper used for the printing, and an attribute of paper to be used as a print medium. The attribute of paper is identified from the new printing request information.
