Printing system, method for controlling printing system, and information processing apparatus

A method for controlling a printing system including a first terminal apparatus of a first user, a printing apparatus, which is positioned in a room of a second user, and an information processing apparatus communicably connected to each of the first terminal apparatus and the printing apparatus,

• wherein the information processing apparatus executes
• accepting from the first terminal apparatus a print completion date and time that is a date and time when printing of a content is to be completed by the printing apparatus,
• determining a print start date and time that is a date and time to start printing the content based on the print completion date and time, a print turnaround period that is a period required to print the content by the printing apparatus, and a margin period required for the printing apparatus to complete printing of the content by the print completion date and time, and
• transmitting a print start instruction that instructs start of the printing of the content at the print start date and time to the printing apparatus, and
• the printing apparatus executes starting the printing of the content at the print start date and time when the printing apparatus receives the print start instruction from the information processing apparatus.

An information processing apparatus communicably connected to each of a first terminal apparatus of a first user and a printing apparatus, which is positioned in a room of a second user the information processing apparatus comprising:

• a processor configured to perform functions of:
• an acceptance section that accepts a print completion date and time that is a date and time when printing of a content is completed from the first terminal apparatus;
• a determination section that determines a print start date and time that is a date and time to start printing the content based on the print completion date and time, a print turnaround period that is a period required to print the content by the printing apparatus, and a margin period required for the printing apparatus to complete printing of the content by the print completion date and time, and
• a print instruction section that transmits a print start instruction that instructs start of the printing of the content at the print start date and time to the printing apparatus.
