Abstract
An information processing system capable of saving a recording material used for printing a medium to be cut using a cutting machine. The information processing system includes an image forming apparatus configured to print a print image on a medium, an information processing apparatus, and a cutting machine. The information processing system comprises at least one memory and at least one processor which function as a setting unit configured to set a cutting region in which the cutting machine cuts the medium on which the print image has been printed, and a print image generation unit configured to generate, from an input image, the print image not including an image outside a cutting region.
Claims20
An information processing system including an image forming apparatus configured to print a print image on a medium, an information processing apparatus, and a cutting machine, the information processing system comprising:
- at least one memory and at least one processor which function as:
- a setting unit configured to set a cutting region in which the cutting machine cuts the medium on which the print image has been printed;
- and
- a print image generation unit configured to generate, from an input image, the print image not including an image outside a cutting region.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a cutting application that causes an information processing apparatus to cooperates with an image forming apparatus configured to print a print image on a medium and a cutting machine, the cutting application comprising code for executing:
- setting of a cutting region in which the cutting machine cuts the medium on which the print image has been printed;
- and
- generating of the print image not including an image outside a cutting region from an input image.
An image forming apparatus connected to an information processing apparatus and a cutting machine and configured to print a print image on a medium, the image forming apparatus comprising:
- at least one memory and at least one processor which function as:
- an acquisition unit configured to acquire, from the information processing apparatus, a cutting region in which the cutting machine cuts a medium on which the print image has been printed;
- and
- a print image generation unit configured to generate, from an input image, the print image not including an image outside a cutting region.
