Abstract: It is possible to suppress a data transfer cost in printing using a cloud print service. A client terminal 102 transmits a print job for printing data to an image forming apparatus 101 via a cloud print service 107. In a case that the image forming apparatus 101 has a capability to process a reference print job that has designated a storage location of the data in a URI format, the client terminal 102 transmits the reference print job to the cloud print service 107.

Abstract: A printing system includes a printing device that returns, using IPP, a response to an inquiry of its printing capability to an information processing device, inclusive of information indicating a storage region, with the information indicating the storage region being specified in attribute information defined by the IPP or attribute information defined independently by a vendor by extending the IPP, and stores the printing job in a designated storage region in a case where the storage request for the printing job including information for designating the storage region of the printing job has been received from the information processing device.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus usable from a cloud print service by registering the image forming apparatus to the cloud print service. The image forming apparatus performs a deletion operation of information about the cloud print service in which the image forming apparatus is registered, the information being stored in the image forming apparatus, and outputs a notification prompting deletion of registration of the image forming apparatus from the cloud print service when deletion of the registered information about the cloud print service is executed by the deletion operation.

Abstract: A printing apparatus is provided. The apparatus stores user identification information of a registered user in a storage, obtains a print job including user information of an owner of the print job from a printing service system. When the print job obtained is a first print job in which the owner of the print job obtained does not correspond to the user identification information stored in the storage and is obtained from the printing service system, the apparatus executes the print job according to a setting for allowing or denying printing using the first print job and performs printing via a printing unit.

Abstract: In a printing system including a client terminal and a printing device including one or more storage regions for storing printing jobs, the client terminal and the printing device communicating with each other using an IPP, the client terminal displays a candidate for a storage destination of a printing job corresponding to information indicating a storage region included in a response of printing capability which is received from the printing device, designates a storage region corresponding to a storage destination selected by a user, and transmits a storage request for the printing job to the printing device.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus capable of providing an appropriate IP address to a mobile terminal in which a network service discovery protocol does not function. The information processing apparatus has a plurality of lines assigned with different pieces of address information, and is configured to transmit short-range wireless-communication information, in which address information regarding one line out of the plurality of lines is set, to a communication destination via short-range wireless communication. The information processing apparatus comprises a setting unit configured to preferentially set, into the short-range wireless-communication information, address information regarding a line, out of the plurality of lines, in which a relay device for performing intercommunication between different protocols is provided between the information processing apparatus and the communication destination.

Abstract: A communication apparatus accepts from a user a display setting regarding a two-dimensional code in which one or more parameters related to communication with a communication apparatus are encoded, and determines a parameter set that includes one or more parameters to be encoded in the two-dimensional code related to communication with the communication apparatus. When the accepted display setting is a first setting, a first two-dimensional code for a first application in which a first parameter set corresponding to the first setting is encoded is displayed, and when the accepted display setting is a second setting, a second two-dimensional code for a second application in which a second parameter set corresponding to the second setting is encoded and which is different from the first two-dimensional code is displayed, and wherein the first two-dimensional code includes a parameter that is not included in the second two-dimensional code.

Abstract: A control method for a device searched for by an external terminal is provided. The method includes: transmitting a first response when a searching request for a first searching protocol is received from the external terminal; and transmitting a second response when a searching request for a second searching protocol different from the first searching protocol is received from the external terminal. Each of the first and second responses includes identification information for uniquely identifying the device. The included identification information is differentiated between the first and second responses.
