When the NFC function is set to be disabled, the information processing apparatus starts an operation in the direct wireless communication mode in response to an external operation instruction.

Abstract: Ability information about an authentication printing function to be transmitted from a printing apparatus to a print client is varied depending on whether a communication path between the apparatuses is encrypted.

Abstract: A print system includes a printer that downloads print data from a server, and performs, in accordance with one of an instruction according to the print data, and a setting value of the printer that is set in advance, one of storing of the print data as a stored print job, and printing of the print data without storing of the print job. The print system also includes the server that transmits, in a case that a cancellation instruction for cancelling printing of the print data is received from a user, the cancellation instruction to the printer, records cancellation of a print job, including the print data, in a print history, and disconnects communication with the printer. The printer cancels print processing in accordance with receiving the cancellation instruction from the server, deletes the stored print job, and records the cancellation of the print job in the print history.

A plurality of modules are installed into a PC as an information processing apparatus for performing print processing in an MFP as an image processing apparatus. A usage form of the PC is set. Required ones of the plurality of modules are displayed based on the set usage form, and are installed into the PC.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus communicates with a plurality of network interfaces of an external apparatus, acquires identification information for identifying the external apparatus and apparatus information about the external apparatus from the external apparatus via a network connected to the plurality of network interfaces, and stores the acquired identification information and the acquired apparatus information in association with each other. If a plurality of pieces of identification information is stored and a plurality of pieces of identical identification information is present in the pieces of identification information, only one piece of apparatus information corresponding to the identification information is displayed.

Abstract: Whether to enable a packet discarding mode is designated and, if an information processing apparatus operates in a power saving mode and the packet discarding mode is enabled, the information processing apparatus determines processing for a received packet based on a proxy response pattern, a WOL pattern, and a discard pattern, and, if the information processing apparatus operates in the power saving mode and the packet discarding mode is disabled, the information processing apparatus determines processing for the received packet based on the proxy response pattern and the WOL pattern without using the discard pattern.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus has a printer driver and a device service associated with the printer driver as an output port of a print job generated by the printer driver. The printer driver receives data in accordance with a print instruction from an application operating on the information processing apparatus, generates a print job based on the received data, and outputs the print job to the output port. The print job is sent to the device service by an operating system using internal loopback. The device service connects to a print apparatus via a port that is different from the output port of the information processing apparatus, receives the print job from the printer driver, transmits a first control command for obtaining status information to the print apparatus, obtains the status information of the apparatus, and accepts print data received through a receiving port.

Abstract: A control method for an information processing apparatus which prevent a page of a print job including a print setting which cannot be addressed by an image forming apparatus from being transmitted to the image forming apparatus. A print job generated in a printer driver to cause an image forming apparatus to perform printing is received from the printer driver. A print setting included in the received print job is analyzed based on conflict information for managing a combination that includes a combination of contents of print setting items that causes a conflict and is unmanageable by the printer driver. When the print job is transmitted, at least a page that causes a conflict with respect to the image forming apparatus, in the print job, is not transmitted based on a result of the analysis.
