Abstract
A printer controlling terminal includes a user interface unit to input a print command for a printing job; an analysis unit to analyze a complexity of the printing job; a determination unit to determine whether the resource save mode is applied according to the analyzed complexity; a printer driver unit to generate printing data of the printing job according to the determination result; and a communication interface unit to transmit the generated printing data to the image forming apparatus.
Claims20
A printer controlling terminal connectable with an image forming apparatus having a resource save mode, comprising:
- a user interface unit to input a print command of a printing job;
- an analysis unit to analyze a complexity of the printing job;
- a determination unit to determine whether the resource save mode is applied, according to the analyzed complexity;
- a printer driver unit to generate printing data of the printing job according to the determination result;
- and
- a communication interface unit to transmit the generated printing data to the image forming apparatus.
An image forming apparatus having a resource save mode, comprising:
- an analysis unit to analyze a complexity of an input job, when a job execution command is input;
- a determination unit to determine whether the resource save mode is applied to the job, according to the analyzed complexity;
- and
- an image forming unit to render the job according to the determination result, and to print the rendered job.
