Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes one or more processors, and at least one computer-readable medium storing executable instructions, wherein the at least one computer-readable medium and the one or more processors are configured to: cause a first printing setting UI including a plurality of printing setting values corresponding to a plurality of printing setting items to be displayed on a display unit, and cause a second printing setting UI to be displayed on the display unit. The second printing setting UI includes an area for setting contrast, a sample image displayed with the set contrast, and an object for printing the sample image. In causing a printing unit to print the sample image in response to a selection of the object, part of the plurality of printing setting values set in the first printing setting UI are not used, and other remaining printing setting values are used.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus described in this specification includes a selection unit configured to select a print queue to be used from among print queues registered in a server system, a control unit configured to display, when a print queue is selected in which print data transmitted by the server system is to be received without intermediation of another server system configured to convert a format of the print data, a print setting screen with which a predetermined setting item is allowed to be set, and to display, when a print queue is selected in which the print data is to be received via the other server system, a print setting screen with which the predetermined setting item is not allowed to be set, and a transmission unit configured to transmit, to the server system, print data based on a print setting which is set via the print setting screen.

In causing a printing unit to print the sample image in response to a selection of the object, part of the plurality of printing setting values set in the first printing setting UI are not used, and other remaining printing setting values are used.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus employs an operating system providing a first user interface (UI) environment appropriate for a touch panel and a conventional desktop UI environment, and, according to display of a pop-up dialog associated with secure print function of a printer driver in the desktop UI environment, if a toast prompting a user to change display from the first UI environment to the second UI environment is displayed for a predetermined period of time by the OS in the first UI environment, and, if a user's operation on the dialog is not performed for a predetermined period of time in the desktop UI environment, the printer driver deletes the dialog and displays the dialog again.

Abstract: When an information processing apparatus displays an icon of a group of a plurality of peripheral devices, the apparatus displays on a home screen an icon of a peripheral device intended by a user, separately from the one icon of the group of the peripheral devices. Further, on the home screen, an icon of a device selected by the user on a screen of a device management application managing the peripheral devices is displayed.
