Abstract
A print management apparatus includes a detection unit, a determination unit and a notification unit. The detection unit detects a specific print command. The determination unit determines a second person who gives another print command. The second person is different from a first person who gives the specific print command detected by the detection unit. The notification unit notifies, to the second person, information for prompting the second person to collect a printed matter that is output in response to the specific print command.
Claims21
A print management apparatus comprising:
- a detection unit that detects a specific print command;
- a determination unit that determines a second person who gives another print command, the second person being different from a first person who gives the specific print command detected by the detection unit;
- and
- a notification unit that notifies, to the second person, information for prompting the second person to collect a printed matter that is output in response to the specific print command.

A print apparatus comprising:
- a print unit that prints an image on a medium;
- a storage unit that stores print information used to print the image by the print unit;
- a detection unit that detects specific print information in the storage unit;
- a determination unit that determines a second person who gives another print information, the second person being different from a first person who transmits the specific print information detected by the detection unit;
- and
- a differentiation unit that differentiates the medium on which the image is printed using the specific print information and a medium on which another image is printed using the other print information transmitted by the second person.

A print apparatus comprising:
- an acceptance unit that accepts a first print command given by a first person and a second print command given by a second person, the second person being different from the first person;
- an output unit that outputs a first printed matter in response to the first print command accepted by the acceptance unit and outputs a second printed matter in response to the second print command accepted by the acceptance unit;
- and
- a notification unit that notifies, to the second person who collects the second printed matter, information for causing the first printed matter to be collected instead of the first person.

A print system comprising:
- a first transmission unit that transmits a print command given by a first person;
- a second transmission unit that transmits a print command given by a second person, the second person being different from the first person;
- a determination unit that determines that the second person is to collect a printed matter output in response to the print command given by the first person when at least one of (i) a relationship between the first person and the second person and (ii) a relationship between the printed matter output in response to the print command given by the first person and a printed matter output in response to the print command given by the second person satisfies a predetermined condition;
- and
- a reception unit that receives a determination result made by the determination unit.
2 more elements
