US 2008/0291484 A1 · DRIVER APPARATUS, SETTING CONTENT MANAGEMENT METHOD, SETTING CONTENT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

Abstract

To provide a technique that can improve visibility of the registered setting contents and contribute to improvement of operability in a driver apparatus that causes an image processing apparatus to execute plural functions executable in the image processing apparatus on the basis of setting contents registered for respective functions. A driver apparatus that causes an image processing apparatus to execute plural functions executable in the image processing apparatus on the basis of setting contents registered for the respective functions includes a selected-function determining unit that determines, on the basis of an operation input of a user, a function for which display of the setting contents is requested among the plural functions, a setting-information acquiring unit that acquires setting information indicating the setting contents registered for the function for which it is determined by the selected-function determining unit that display of the setting contents is requested, and a display control unit that causes the image processing apparatus to display, as a list, information on setting information acquired by the setting-information acquiring unit in association with information on the function for which it is determined by the selected-function determining unit that display of the setting contents is requested.

Dependent claims

A driver apparatus that causes an image processing apparatus to execute plural functions executable in the image processing apparatus on the basis of setting contents registered for the respective functions, the driver apparatus comprising:

a selected-function determining unit configured to determine, on the basis of an operation input of a user, a function for which display of the setting contents is requested among the plural functions;
a setting-information acquiring unit configured to acquire setting information indicating the setting contents registered for the function for which it is determined by the selected-function determining unit that display of the setting contents is requested;
and
a display control unit configured to cause the image processing apparatus to display, as a list, information on setting information acquired by the setting-information acquiring unit in association with information on the function for which it is determined by the selected-function determining unit that display of the setting contents is requested.

A setting content management method in a driver apparatus that causes an image processing apparatus to execute plural functions executable in the image processing apparatus on the basis of setting contents registered for the respective functions, the setting content management method comprising the steps of:

determining, on the basis of an operation input of a user, a function for which display of the setting contents is requested among the plural functions;
acquiring setting information indicating the setting contents registered for the function for which it is determined in the selected-function determining step that display of the setting contents is requested;
and
causing the image processing apparatus to display, as a list, information on setting information acquired by the setting-information acquiring step in association with information on the function for which it is determined in the selected-function determining step that display of the setting contents is requested.

1 more element

A setting content management program for causing a computer to execute management of setting contents in a driver apparatus that causes an image processing apparatus to execute plural functions executable in the image processing apparatus on the basis of setting contents registered for the respective functions, the setting content management program causing the computer to execute:

a selected-function determining step of determining, on the basis of an operation input of a user, a function for which display of the setting contents is requested among the plural functions;
a setting-information acquiring step of acquiring setting information indicating the setting contents registered for the function for which it is determined in the selected-function determining step that display of the setting contents is requested;
and
a display control step of displaying, as a list, information on setting information acquired by the setting-information acquiring step in association with information on the function for which it is determined in the selected-function determining step that display of the setting contents is requested.
