Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes a receiving unit for receiving data; a printing unit for printing the data; a data storage unit for storing the data; a print setting storage unit for storing a print enable setting indicating whether the data received with the receiving unit is printed; and a print control unit for controlling the printing unit to print the data stored in the data storage unit when the print enable setting is not set to print the data and it is determined that a remaining storage capacity of the data storage unit is not sufficient.
Claims19
An information processing apparatus, comprising:
- a receiving unit for receiving data;
- a printing unit for printing the data;
- a data storage unit for storing the data;
- a print setting storage unit for storing a print enable setting indicating whether the data received with the receiving unit is printed;
- and
- a print control unit for controlling the printing unit to print the data stored in the data storage unit when the print enable setting is not set to print the data and it is determined that a remaining storage capacity of the data storage unit is not sufficient.
An information processing apparatus, comprising:
- a receiving unit for receiving data;
- a printing unit for printing the data;
- a data storage unit for storing the data;
- a print setting storage unit for storing a print enable setting indicating whether the data received with the receiving unit is printed;
- and
- a print control unit for performing a print setting updating process to change the print enable setting to print the data when the print enable setting is not set to print the data and it is determined that a remaining storage capacity of the data storage unit is not sufficient.
A method of processing information with an information processing apparatus including a receiving unit for receiving data;
- a printing unit for printing the data;
- a data storage unit for storing the data;
- a print setting storage unit for storing a print enable setting indicating whether the data received with the receiving unit is printed;
- and a control unit, comprising:
- a print enable determining step of determining whether the print enable setting is set to print the data;
- a remaining storage capacity calculation step of calculating a remaining storage capacity of the data storage unit;
- a remaining storage capacity sufficiency determining step of determining whether the remaining storage capacity is sufficient;
- and
- a printing step of controlling the printing unit to print the data stored in the data storage unit when the print enable setting is set not to print the data, and it is determined that the remaining storage capacity is not sufficient.
