Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit, a decision unit, a determination unit, and a change unit. The acquisition unit acquires a measurement result regarding a printing medium characteristic value. The decision unit decides a candidate for a printing medium type based on the acquired measurement result, and a reference characteristic value of each of printing media types set in advance to identify a type of the measured printing medium. Information associated with the printing medium type to be printed is input. The determination unit determines whether to change the reference characteristic value of the printing medium type associated with the input information based on the measurement result and the printing medium type associated with the input information. Wherein, when the determination unit determines to change the reference characteristic value, the change unit changes the reference characteristic value of the printing medium type based on the measurement result.

Abstract: A characteristic value of a printing medium to be printed is measured with an optical sensor. A type of a printing medium is extracted based on reference characteristic values and a measured value, and the type of the printing medium is informed by an input/output unit. The reference characteristic value associated with the type of the printing medium determined to be used in a printing apparatus is changed.
