Information processing apparatus, recording medium, and information processing method

An information processing apparatus, comprising:

• a communication interface configured to execute SNMP-based communication with an image forming apparatus via a network;
• a memory that stores
• Queue Property Bag that stores SNMP-based-communication information, the SNMP-based-communication information being authentication information necessary for the SNMP-based communication,
• an SNMP module configured to execute the SNMP-based communication, and
• a V4 printer driver including a printer extension module;
• and
• a processor configured to execute the printer extension module and the SNMP module, wherein
• when the processor executes the printer extension module, the processor operates as
• an SNMP manager configured to
• activate the SNMP module, and
• control the SNMP module to obtain device configuration information of the image forming apparatus from the image forming apparatus by using the SNMP-based-communication information stored in the Queue Property Bag by means of the SNMP-based communication via the communication interface, and to store the obtained device configuration information in the Queue Property Bag, and
• a first device configuration manager configured to
• determine a function that the image forming apparatus is configured to execute on the basis of the device configuration information obtained and stored in the Queue Property Bag by the SNMP module, and
• generate a first customized UI supporting the determined function, the first customized UI being a customized UI of the V4 printer driver.
