Abstract
In a system for transmitting print data from a server apparatus for forming the print data to a client apparatus and performing print based on the print data, it is an object of the invention to improve security of printed matter by inhibiting reprint using the print data stored in the client apparatus and improve operability upon reprinting.
Claims15
A data processing method of transmitting print data from a first information processing apparatus for forming the print data to a second information processing apparatus and performing print based on the print data, comprising:
- a transmitting step of transmitting the formed print data from said first information processing apparatus to said second information processing apparatus;
- a deleting step of deleting the print data transmitted from said first information processing apparatus to said second information processing apparatus after completion of the print based on the print data transmitted from said first information processing apparatus to said second information processing apparatus;
- and
- a forming step of forming print history information for enabling reprint with respect to the print based on the print data transmitted from said first information processing apparatus to said second information processing apparatus on the basis of a notification indicative of the completion of the print based on the print data transmitted from said first information processing apparatus to said second information processing apparatus.
A program for transmitting print data to an information processing apparatus, wherein said program allows a computer to execute:
- a transmitting step of transmitting formed print data to said information processing apparatus;
- and
- a forming step of forming print history information for enabling reprint with respect to print based on the print data transmitted to said information processing apparatus on the basis of a notification indicative of completion of the print based on the print data transmitted to said information processing apparatus,
- and the print data transmitted to said information processing apparatus is deleted after completion of the print based on the print data transmitted to said information processing apparatus.
A data processing system for transmitting print data from a first information processing apparatus for forming the print data to a second information processing apparatus and performing print based on the print data, comprising:
- transmitting means for transmitting the formed print data from said first information processing apparatus to said second information processing apparatus;
- deleting means for deleting the print data transmitted from said first information processing apparatus to said second information processing apparatus after completion of the print based on the print data transmitted from said first information processing apparatus to said second information processing apparatus;
- and
- forming means for forming print history information for enabling reprint with respect to the print based on the print data transmitted from said first information processing apparatus to said second information processing apparatus on the basis of a notification indicative of the completion of the print based on the print data transmitted from said first information processing apparatus to said second information processing apparatus.
