US 2025/0156124 A1 · INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS CAPABLE OF PROPERLY PERFORMING RESERVATION PRINTING, METHOD OF CONTROLLING SAME, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Abstract

An information processing apparatus that manages a print job to be transmitted to a printer using a general-purpose printer driver so as to make it possible to properly perform reservation printing on a user-by-user basis, in the printer. User information required by a printer which is communicably connected to the information processing apparatus directly or via a cloud is set and stored. Print data for executing a print job in the printer is generated. The stored user information is acquired when the print job is executed by the printer. The generated print data and the acquired user information are transmitted to the printer.
