Abstract
A printed material production system includes: a reception section configured to receive an order of a printed material; when the order includes production of the three-dimensional printed material, an output section configured to output a first preview indicating a plurality of faces of the three-dimensional printed material after printing; and a production section configured to print in accordance with the order to produce the three-dimensional printed material.
Claims5
A printed material production system comprising:
- a first processor including
- a reception section configured to receive an order of a printed material, and
- when the order includes production of the three-dimensional printed material, an output section configured to output a first preview indicating views seen from a plurality of directions of the three-dimensional printed material after printing;
- a second processor including a production section configured to print in accordance with the order to produce the three-dimensional printed material;
- and
- a third processor including a print section that prints an order sheet including a preview per the printed material of the order, wherein
- when the order includes production of the three-dimensional printed material, and only one type of the three-dimensional printed material to be produced is included, the print section prints the first preview on the order sheet, whereas
- when the order includes production of more than one predetermined type of the three-dimensional printed material, the print section prints a second preview instead of the first preview of the predetermined three-dimensional printed material on the order sheet.
A printing method comprising:
- receiving an order of a printed material;
- when the order includes production of the three-dimensional printed material, outputting a first preview indicating views seen from a plurality of directions of the three-dimensional printed material after printing;
- printing in accordance with the order to produce the three-dimensional printed material;
- and
- printing an order sheet including a preview per the printed material of the order, wherein
- when the order includes production of the three-dimensional printed material, and only one type of the three-dimensional printed material to be produced is included, the first preview is printed on the order sheet, whereas
- when the order includes production of more than one predetermined type of the three-dimensional printed material, a second preview instead of the first preview of the predetermined three-dimensional printed material is printed on the order sheet.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program, the program causing a computer to perform functions comprising:
- a reception section configured to receive an order of a printed material;
- when the order includes production of the three-dimensional printed material, an output section configured to output a first preview indicating views seen from a plurality of directions of the three-dimensional printed material after printing;
- a production section configured to print in accordance with the order to produce the three-dimensional printed material;
- and
- a print section that prints an order sheet including a preview per the printed material of the order, wherein
- when the order includes production of the three-dimensional printed material, and only one type of the three-dimensional printed material to be produced is included, the print section prints the first preview on the order sheet, whereas
- when the order includes production of more than one predetermined type of the three-dimensional printed material, the print section prints a second preview instead of the first preview of the predetermined three-dimensional printed material on the order sheet.
