Computer-readable storage medium for information processing apparatus having switchable processing channels

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing computer readable instructions that are executable by a computer in an information processing apparatus, the information processing apparatus comprising a communication interface, through which the information processing apparatus is connected with a printer, the information processing apparatus being configured to, in response to receiving through the communication interface a command that causes the printer to print an image, conduct a print control, the print control comprising a first print control, in which printing of the image is processed through a first channel, and a second print control, in which printing of the image is processed through a second channel different from the first channel, the computer readable instructions, when executed by the computer, causing the computer to:

• accept a selection for the printer;
• determine whether the print control is to be switched from the first print control to the second print control based on the selection for the printer;
• based on a determination that the print control is to be switched from the first print control to the second print control, obtain history of the first print control conducted in past in the selected printer;
• and
• based on the obtained history of the first print control, set a print setting value for the second print control to be conducted in the selected printer,
• wherein, in response to causing the printer to print the image, the computer readable instructions cause the computer to transmit a record, in which information to identify one of the first print control and the second print control used in the printing of the image is associated with the print setting value used in the printing of the image, to an external device through the communication interface;
• and
• wherein the computer readable instructions cause the computer to receive a record containing information concerning the first print control conducted in the past from the external device and obtain the print setting value stored in the received record as the history of the print control conducted in the past in the selected printer.

• based on a determination that the print control is to be switched from the first print control to the second print control, obtain history of the first print control conducted in past in the selected printer;
• and
• based on the obtained history of the first print control, set a print setting value for the second print control to be conducted in the selected printer,
• wherein the information processing apparatus comprises a user interface;
• wherein the computer readable instructions cause the computer to display through the user interface a setting screen, in which the print setting value for the printing of the image in the selected printer is displayed, based on the print control to be conducted;
• wherein, based on the determination that the print control is to be switched from the first print control to the second print control, the computer readable instructions cause the computer to further determine whether a mode to set the print setting value through the setting screen for the second print control is different from a mode to set the print setting value through the setting screen for the first print control;
• and
• wherein, based on a determination that the mode to set the print setting value through the setting screen for the second print control is different from the mode to set the print setting value through the setting screen for the first print control, the computer readable instructions cause the computer to output notification through the user interface concerning the mode to set the print setting value through the setting screen for the second print control.

• and
• based on the obtained history of the first print control, set a print setting value for the second print control to be conducted in the selected printer,
• wherein, based on the determination that the print control is to be switched from the first print control to the second print control, the computer readable instructions cause the computer to further determine whether the print setting value for the first print control includes a setting option that is inapplicable for the second print control;
• wherein, based on a determination that the print setting value for the first print control includes the setting option that is inapplicable for the second print control, the computer readable instructions cause the computer to output notification concerning inapplicability of the setting option for the second print control,
• wherein the information processing apparatus comprises a user interface;
• wherein the computer readable instructions cause the computer to display through the user interface an editor screen, through which image data of the image to be printed is editable;
• wherein, based on the determination that the print setting value for the first print control includes the setting option that is inapplicable for the second print control, the computer readable instructions cause the computer to further determine whether an image, in which the setting option inapplicable for the second print control is achievable through editing, is producible;
• and
• wherein, based on a determination that the image, in which the setting option inapplicable for the second print control is achievable through editing, is producible, the computer readable instructions cause the computer to output information concerning a method to edit the image data through the editor screen.
