Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a first printer driver, and a second printer driver. The first printer driver includes prohibition information specific to a device that is to be controlled. The second printer driver includes an association establishing unit and a receiving unit. The association establishing unit establishes an association with the first printer driver. The receiving unit receives print settings. The second printer driver transmits, to the device that is to be controlled, print data based on print settings that have been obtained through conversion performed on the basis of the prohibition information included in the first printer driver. The association establishing unit establishes the association with the first printer driver.

Abstract: A print instructing device includes: a recording section that, in a case in which history information does not include size information indicating a size of a print medium designated by a print demand that demands an execution of printing, records paper quality information indicating a paper quality of the print medium designated by the print demand in association with the size information in the history information; and a display controlling section that, in a case in which the size information is included in the history information and the paper quality information does not match the history information corresponding to the size information, causes confirmation information confirming whether or not to change the designated paper quality to be displayed.

Abstract: An image processing system includes an information processing apparatus and an image processing apparatus, in which the information processing apparatus includes: a first output section that outputs, to the image processing apparatus, identification information and an image to be printed; and a second output section that receives print settings from a user and outputs the print settings and the identification information to the image processing apparatus, and the image processing apparatus includes a printing section that receives the image, the print settings, and the identification information output from the first output section and the second output section and performs printing of the image in accordance with the print settings for the image using the identification information.

Abstract: A method for controlling an image forming system in which a client device creates print data using a print restriction and causes an image forming apparatus to print the print data, has an inquiring step of issuing an inquiry from the client device to the image forming apparatus in response to a print instruction from a user as to whether the print restriction is updated, and a print data output step in which, when the print restriction is not updated, the client device creates print data using the print restriction stored in the client device and outputs the print data, and, when the print restriction is updated, the client device updates the print restriction stored in the client device to that obtained from the image forming apparatus, creates the print data using the updated print restriction, and outputs the print data to the image forming apparatus.
