Information processing apparatus, information processing system and non-transitory computer-readable information recording medium

An information processing system comprising:

• a print data generation unit that receives, via an operating system, a print execution instruction including a file and a first print setting from an application, and generates print data;
• an application management unit that sends a printing instruction to the application;
• an extended interface unit other than an interface unit defined by the operating system;
• and
• a print setting storing unit that stores a second print setting that is input from the application management unit via the extended interface unit, wherein
• the print data generation unit changes a print setting to be used to generate the print data from the first print setting to the second print setting.

A non-transitory computer-readable information recording medium storing therein a processor-executable program causing one or more processors to function as:

• a print data generation part that receives, via an operating system, a print execution instruction including a file and a first print setting from an application, and generates print data;
• an application management part that sends a printing instruction to the application;
• an extended interface part other than an interface part defined by the operating system;
• and
• a print setting storing part that stores a second print setting that is input from the application management part via the extended interface part, wherein
• the print data generation part changes a print setting to be used to generate the print data from the first print setting to the second print setting.
