Abstract
An information processing apparatus manages user information in such a manner that the user information is unable to be acquired using an authority different from a user authority, and acquires the user information by changing an authority of a control unit configured to control print processing under a system authority from a system authority to the user authority of a user that issues an instruction for print processing.
Claims18
An information processing apparatus configured to generate a print job interpretable by an image processing apparatus, the information processing apparatus comprising:
- a management unit configured to manage user information in such a manner that the user information is unable to be acquired using an authority different from a user authority;
- a control unit configured to control a printer driver;
- and
- a setting unit configured to set an authority of the control unit to the user authority of a user that issues an instruction for print processing,
- wherein the control unit acquires the managed user information using the set user authority, and
- wherein a print job generated based on the acquired user information is transmitted to the image processing apparatus.
A control method performed by an information processing apparatus configured to generate a print job interpretable by an image processing apparatus, the method comprising:
- managing user information in such a manner that the user information is unable to be acquired using an authority different from a user authority;
- controlling a printer driver;
- setting an authority of the controlling to the user authority of a user that issues an instruction for print processing;
- acquiring the managed user information using the set user authority;
- and
- transmitting a print job generated based on the acquired user information to the image processing apparatus.
A storage medium storing computer executable instructions executable by an information processing apparatus configured to generate a print job interpretable by an image processing apparatus, the computer executable instructions comprising:
- managing user information in such a manner that the user information is unable to be acquired using an authority different from a user authority;
- controlling a printer driver;
- setting an authority of the controlling to the user authority of a user that issues an instruction for print processing;
- acquiring the managed user information using the set user authority;
- and
- transmitting a print job generated based on the acquired user information to the image processing apparatus.
