PRINTING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18051466 titled 'PRINTING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a printing apparatus that can connect to multiple cloud print services. It receives print jobs from these services, stores identification information about the service, and after executing the print job, sends execution history information back to the respective cloud print service.

  • The printing apparatus can connect to multiple cloud print services.
  • It receives print jobs from these services.
  • It stores identification information to identify the cloud print service.
  • After executing the print job, it sends execution history information back to the respective cloud print service.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be used in offices and businesses that rely on cloud print services for their printing needs.
  • It can also be useful in shared workspaces or coworking spaces where multiple users may be using different cloud print services.

Problems Solved

  • The printing apparatus solves the problem of having to manually track and report print job execution history for each cloud print service.
  • It eliminates the need for separate reporting or monitoring systems for each cloud print service.

Benefits

  • The printing apparatus simplifies the process of printing from multiple cloud print services.
  • It provides a centralized solution for managing and reporting print job execution history.
  • It improves efficiency by automating the transmission of execution history information to the respective cloud print services.


Original Abstract Submitted

A printing apparatus capable of connecting to a plurality of cloud print services executes a print job received from any one of the plurality of cloud print services, stores identification information for identifying the cloud print service from which the print job is transmitted, and after the print job is executed, transmits execution history information about the print job to the cloud print service from which the print job is transmitted, using the stored identification information.
