Abstract
A system for performing color validation by comparing a color measurement result of a chart and a color reference, the system including a first information processing apparatus, wherein the first information processing apparatus includes a colorimetric setting for performing color validation by comparing a color measurement result of a chart and a color reference, a transmission unit configured to transmit screen information of a screen for receiving a chart printing instruction, a receiving unit configured to receive the colorimetric setting and the chart printing instruction, and a generation unit configured to generate print data of a chart based on the colorimetric setting and the chart printing instruction.
Claims19
An information processing system, comprising:
- at least one processor and at least one memory coupled to the at least one processor and having instructions stored thereon, and when executed by the at least on processor, acting as:
- a providing unit configured to provide, to an external apparatus connected via a network, screen information for displaying a setting screen which includes a first display item for receiving a user operation to instruct printing of a chart to be used in color validation, and first information, second information, and third information associated with each of a plurality of selectable colorimetric settings, wherein the first information represents a color reference to be used in the color validation, the second information represents an image forming apparatus that is target for color verification using each color reference and the third information represents a print condition of a chart for color verification using each color reference;
- a receiving unit configured to receive a printing instruction transmitted form the external apparatus in accordance with the user operation on the first display item displayed on a screen of the external apparatus;
- a generation unit configured to, on a basis of the printing instruction received by the receiving unit, generate a print job for printing a chart which satisfies a colorimetric setting selected by a user in the setting screen;
- a transmitting unit configured to transmit the print job generated by the generation unit to an image forming apparatus;
- and
- an executing unit configured to execute the color validation by comparing a result of color measurement of the chart, the result being acquired from the external apparatus, with the selected color reference.
An information processing method, comprising:
- providing, to an external apparatus connected via a network, screen information for displaying a setting screen which includes a first display item for receiving a user operation to instruct printing of a chart to be used in color validation, and first information, second information, and third information associated with each of a plurality of selectable colorimetric settings, wherein the first information represents color reference to be used in the color validation, the second information represents an image forming apparatus that is target for color verification using each color reference and the third information represents a print condition of a chart for color verification using each color reference;
- receiving a printing instruction transmitted form the external apparatus in accordance with the user operation on the first display item displayed on a screen of the external apparatus;
- generating, on a basis of the received printing instruction, a print job for printing a chart which satisfies a colorimetric setting selected by a user in the setting screen;
- transmitting the generated print job to an image forming apparatus;
- and
- executing the color validation by comparing a result of color measurement of the chart, the result being acquired from the external apparatus, with the selected color reference.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program readable by a computer for causing the computer to function as an information processing system, the information processing system comprising:
- at least one processor and at least one memory coupled to the at least one processor and having instructions stored thereon, and when executed by the at least on processor, acting as:
- a providing unit configured to provide, to an external apparatus connected via a network, screen information for displaying a setting screen which includes a first display item for receiving a user operation to instruct printing of a chart to be used in color validation, and first information, second information, and third information associated with each of a plurality of selectable colorimetric settings, wherein the first information represents a color reference to be used in the color validation, the second information represents an image forming apparatus that is target for color verification using each color reference and the third information represents a print condition of a chart for color verification using each color reference;
- a receiving unit configured to receive a printing instruction transmitted form the external apparatus in accordance with the user operation on the first display item displayed on a screen of the external apparatus;
- a generation unit configured to, on a basis of the printing instruction received by the receiving unit, generate a print job for printing a chart which satisfies a colorimetric setting selected by a user in the setting screen;
- a transmitting unit configured to transmit the print job generated by the generation unit to an image forming apparatus;
- and
- an executing unit configured to execute the color validation by comparing a result of color measurement of the chart, the result being acquired from the external apparatus, with the selected color reference.
