INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18358821 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an information processing apparatus that includes an application extending the function of print data generation software used by multiple printing apparatuses. The apparatus has memories and a processor that communicate with each other. They are configured to acquire information about the printing form of a connected printing apparatus and display a screen with a different configuration based on the acquired information.

  • The apparatus extends the function of print data generation software used by multiple printing apparatuses.
  • It acquires information about the printing form of a connected printing apparatus.
  • It displays a screen with a different configuration based on the acquired information.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Streamlining the printing process by automatically adjusting the display configuration based on the connected printing apparatus.
  • Enhancing user experience by providing a customized screen layout for different printing forms.
  • Improving efficiency by eliminating the need for manual configuration adjustments when switching between different printing apparatuses.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Incompatibility issues between print data generation software and different printing apparatuses.
  • Difficulty in configuring the display settings for each printing apparatus manually.
  • Lack of customization options for the user interface based on the connected printing apparatus.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Increased compatibility between print data generation software and various printing apparatuses.
  • Simplified and automated configuration process for different printing forms.
  • Enhanced user experience with a tailored screen layout for each printing apparatus.


Original Abstract Submitted

An information processing apparatus including an application that extends a function provided by print data generation software used in common by a plurality of different printing apparatuses includes one or more memories, and a processor in communication with the one or more memories, wherein the one or more memories and the processor are configured to acquire information regarding a printing form of a printing apparatus connected to the information processing apparatus, and cause a display unit to display a screen having a different configuration based on the acquired information.
