Claims19
A screen capture control method of a host apparatus, the screen capture control method comprising:
- transmitting a request to an image forming device at a power-on of the host apparatus and at predetermined time intervals thereafter, requesting device information of the image forming device, the device information including a size of a recording medium supported by the image forming device;
- receiving, from the image forming device, the device information;
- displaying, on a display, a shared clipboard of a first capture application to capture a web browser and a second capture application to capture a desktop, the shared clipboard including at least one page area having a size which is proportional to the size of the recording medium supported by the image forming device connected to the host apparatus, based on the received device information;
- receiving first captured data via the first capture application and receiving second captured data via the second capture application;
- displaying the first and second captured data on a same page area among the at least one page area included in the shared clipboard that is displayed on the display;
- and
- outputting the first and second captured data to the image forming device connected to the host apparatus.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program code of a capture application of a host apparatus, wherein performing the capture application comprises:
- transmitting a request to an image forming device at a power-on of the host apparatus and at predetermined time intervals thereafter, requesting device information of the image forming device, the device information including a size of a recording medium supported by the image forming device;
- receiving, from the image forming device, the device information;
- displaying, on a display, a shared clipboard of a first capture application to capture a web browser and a second capture application to capture a desktop, the shared clipboard including at least one page area having a size which is proportional to the size of the recording medium supported by the image forming device connected to the host apparatus, based on the received device information;
- receiving first captured data via the first capture application and receiving second captured data via the second capture application;
- displaying the first and second captured data on a same page area among the at least one page area included in the shared clipboard that is displayed on the display;
- and
- outputting the first and second captured data to the image forming device connected to the host apparatus.
A method of controlling an image forming device to which a host apparatus is connected, the method comprising:
- receiving a request from the host device at a power-on of the host apparatus and at predetermined time intervals thereafter, requesting device information of the image forming device, the device information including a size of a recording medium that is printable by the image forming device;
- providing, by the image forming device, the host apparatus with the device information about the image forming device including the size of the recording medium that is printable by the image forming device;
- receiving captured data obtained by a first capture application and a second capture application for a same page area of a shared clipboard that is displayed on a display of the host apparatus, the same page area of the shared clipboard having a size which is proportional to the size of the recording medium printable by the image forming device;
- and
- forming an image of the captured data on the recording medium in response to the receiving of the captured data.
