INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18322430 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information processing apparatus that is used in printing processes.

  • The apparatus includes a layer-group determining unit that determines a group of layers printed using ink.
  • The layers are formed by specific color ink and color ink.
  • The apparatus also includes a receiving unit that receives input of printing conditions for each layer group and other layers.
  • The printing conditions can be adjusted for different layers.
  • The apparatus further includes a setting unit that applies the input values of printing conditions to the respective layer groups and other layers.
  • This allows for customized printing conditions for different layers in a printing process.


Original Abstract Submitted

An information processing apparatus includes a layer-group determining unit configured to determine, from a printing layer that is a plurality of layers printed using a head that ejects ink, the printing layer including the layer formed by specific color ink and the layer formed by color ink, a layer group that is a plurality of the layers printed in one scanning by the head, a receiving unit configured to receive an input of printing conditions for each of the layer group included in the printing layer and other layers that are zero or more of the layers not included in the layer group, and a setting unit configured to perform setting for applying, to the layer group, a first input value of the printing condition input for the layer group and applying, to the other layers, a second input value of the printing condition input for the other layers.
