Abstract: An information processing apparatus according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a controller, a display section, an operation section, and a communication section. The controller causes the display section to display a content selection image from which a printing target content is selected and evaluates whether the printing target content selected via the operation section can be printed by a second printing apparatus different from a first printing apparatus capable of printing the printing target content. When the printing target content is printable by the second printing apparatus, the controller causes the display section to display a first apparatus selection image from which one of the first and second printing apparatuses is selected as a printing apparatus that prints the printing target content.

Abstract: A monitoring apparatus is configured to acquire, from a multi-function apparatus including a first device and a second device, first device information regarding the first device and being a collection target and second device information regarding the second device and being a collection target, the monitoring apparatus including: a status information acquisition unit configured to acquire from the first device, at a monitoring timing of the multi-function apparatus, status information denoting a state of the first device; and a device information acquisition unit configured to acquire the first device information from the first device and the second device information from the second device, wherein the device information acquisition unit does not perform acquisition of the second device information from the second device when the status information acquired by the status information acquisition unit is information denoting a sleep mode of the first device.

Abstract: A print controller includes a communication section configured to communicate with a printer, a communication controlling section configured to request transmission of a transmission command for acquiring response data to the printer, and a printing data processing section configured to process printing data on a host-based system and transmit the processed printing data to the printer via the communication section. During communication on the host-based system, the printing data processing section transmits the transmission command to the printer via the communication section and acquires the response data returned from the printer in response to the transmission command. The communication controlling section processes the acquired response data as response data corresponding to the transmission command.

Abstract: A print control apparatus includes a communication unit that communicates with the printer, a communication controller that makes a transmission request for a transmission command while taking the printer as a transmission target, a storage unit, a transmission controller that transmits the transmission command to the printer through the communication unit in response to the transmission request, and a reception controller that acquires response data corresponding to the transmission command from the printer through the communication unit and stores the acquired response data in a region of the storage unit in accordance with a type of the response data. The communication controller acquires the response data stored in the region of the storage unit, which is determined in accordance with the type of the transmission command, as the response data corresponding to the transmission command.
