INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240111467 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an information processing apparatus that acquires image data for printing, including double-sided printing, based on information of the image data.
- The apparatus includes at least one processor and memory for executing a computer-readable program.
- The acquisition unit acquires image data for printing by a printer corresponding to a printer driver.
- The setting unit decides the binding setting for double-sided printing based on the acquired image data information.
Potential Applications
This technology can be applied in various industries such as printing, publishing, and office environments where double-sided printing is commonly used.
Problems Solved
1. Streamlining the process of setting up double-sided printing for documents. 2. Ensuring efficient use of resources by optimizing printing settings based on image data.
Benefits
1. Improved efficiency in printing processes. 2. Reduction in paper waste through optimized double-sided printing settings.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimized printing solutions for businesses looking to improve their printing processes and reduce costs.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be the use of printer drivers to control printing settings, but the specific optimization based on image data for double-sided printing may be a novel aspect of this technology.
Unanswered Questions
1. How does the acquisition unit determine the optimal binding setting for double-sided printing? 2. Are there any limitations to the types of image data that can be processed for setting up double-sided printing?
Original Abstract Submitted
an information processing apparatus includes at least one processor and at least one memory storing a computer-readable program executable by the processor, the at least one processor and the at least one memory are operatively coupled to function as an acquisition unit that acquires image data by an application for causing a printer corresponding to a printer driver to execute printing, and a setting unit that, if an instruction to execute double-sided printing of the image data is accepted by the application, decides a binding setting of a document to print the image data based on information of the image data acquired by the acquisition unit, and set the decided binding setting for the printer driver.
