  • Publication number: 20150347071
    Abstract: A print management apparatus includes an acquisition section, a detecting section, an error job generation section, and a print job management section. The acquisition section acquires print information on plural print jobs to be performed by an image forming apparatus. The detecting section detects types of recording materials to be used in units of the plural print jobs on the basis of the acquired print information. The error job generation section generates a first error job including information that is not printable by the image forming apparatus when the detected types of the recording materials are different between successive print jobs. The print job management section manages the plural print jobs, and inserts the first error job between the successive print jobs when the first error job is generated.

  • Patent number: 8908223
    Abstract: A print control apparatus includes a print management unit, a storage unit, a print control unit, and a checking unit. The print management unit accepts print instructions for output data, and records an order in which the print instructions have been accepted. The storage unit temporarily stores the output data related to the print instructions accepted by the print management unit. The print control unit sequentially acquires the output data from the storage unit, transmits the output data to an image forming apparatus, and records an order in which the output data have been transmitted. The checking unit compares and checks the order in which the print instructions have been accepted, which has been recorded by the print management unit, and the order in which the output data have been transmitted, which has been recorded by the print control unit.
