Abstract
The number of jobs in a printing apparatus is obtained at a timing that is associated with a timing at which the printing apparatus is polled; a transmission control value associated with the number of jobs that are to remain in the printing apparatus is calculated, in a case in which the obtained number of jobs is not equal to a predetermined value; and jobs according to a number of jobs determined from the calculated transmission control value are transmitted to the printing apparatus.
Claims7
An information processing apparatus, comprising:
- an obtaining unit configured to obtain a number of jobs in a printing apparatus at a timing that is associated with a timing at which the printing apparatus is polled;
- a calculation unit configured to calculate a transmission control value associated with a number of jobs that are to remain in the printing apparatus, in a case in which the obtained number of jobs is not equal to a predetermined value;
- and
- a transmission unit configured to transmit jobs according to a number of jobs determined from the calculated transmission control value, to the printing apparatus.
A method for controlling an information processing apparatus, the method comprising:
- obtaining, by an obtaining unit, a number of jobs in a printing apparatus at a timing that is associated with a timing at which the printing apparatus is polled;
- calculating, by a calculation unit, a transmission control value associated with a number of jobs that are to remain in the printing apparatus, in a case in which the obtained number of jobs is not equal to a predetermined value;
- and
- transmitting, by a transmission unit, jobs according to a number of jobs determined from the calculated transmission control value, to the printing apparatus.
A computer-readable storage medium storing computer executable instructions that cause a computer to execute a method for controlling an information processing apparatus, the method comprising:
- obtaining, by an obtaining unit, the a number of jobs in a printing apparatus at a timing that is associated with a timing at which the printing apparatus is polled;
- calculating, by a calculation unit, a transmission control value associated with the a number of jobs that are to remain in the printing apparatus, in a case in which the obtained number of jobs is not equal to a predetermined value;
- and
- transmitting, by a transmission unit, jobs in according to the a number of jobs determined from the calculated transmission control value, to the printing apparatus.
