PRINT RELAY SYSTEM, PRINT RELAY SYSTEM CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
First Claim
1. A print relay system capable of executing a communication between a print service system configured to provide a print setting screen to an information terminal operated by a user, to receive a print setting set by the user via the provided print setting screen, and to generate a print job based on the received print setting and stored settings for an image forming apparatus configured to output image data based on the print job, the print relay system comprising:
- a transmission unit configured to transmit to the information terminal, a detailed print setting screen via which a detailed print setting that cannot be set via the print setting screen can be set;
a receiving unit configured to receive a print job, which is transmitted in a case that a print instruction is input by the information terminal to the print service system;
a job changing unit configured to receive the detailed print setting set by the user via the detailed print setting screen transmitted by the transmission unit and to convert the print job received by the receiving unit into a new print job based on the receive detailed print setting; and
a job transmission unit configured to transmit the new print job which has been converted by the job changing unit to the image forming apparatus.

10. A method for controlling a print relay system including a print service system configured to provide a print setting screen to an information terminal operated by a user, to receive a print setting set by the user via the provided print setting screen, and to generate a print job based on the received print setting and stored settings for an image forming apparatus configured to output image data based on the print job, the print relay system being capable of executing a communication between the print service system and the image forming apparatus, the method comprising:
-
causing a transmission unit to transmit to the information terminal, a detailed print setting screen via which a detailed print setting that cannot be set via the print setting screen can be set; causing a receiving unit to receive a print job, which is transmitted in a case that a print instruction is input by the information terminal to the print service system; causing a job changing unit to receive the detailed print setting set by the user via the detailed print setting screen transmitted by the transmission unit and to convert the print job received by the receiving unit into a new print job based on the receive detailed print setting; and causing a job transmission unit to transmit the new print job which has been converted by the job changing unit to the image forming apparatus.

11. A non-transitory storage medium storing a program to cause a computer to execute a method for controlling a print relay system, the print relay system including a print service system configured to provide a print setting screen to an information terminal operated by a user, to receive a print setting set by the user via the provided print setting screen, and to generate a print job based on the received print setting and stored settings for an image forming apparatus configured to output image data based on the print job, the print relay system being capable of executing a communication between the print service system and the image forming apparatus, the method comprising:
-
causing a transmission unit to transmit to the information terminal, a detailed print setting screen via which a detailed print setting that cannot be set via the print setting screen can be set; causing a receiving unit to receive a print job, which is transmitted in a case that a print instruction is input by the information terminal to the print service system; causing a job changing unit to receive the detailed print setting set by the user via the detailed print setting screen transmitted by the transmission unit and to convert the print job received by the receiving unit into a new print job based on the receive detailed print setting; and causing a job transmission unit to transmit the new print job which has been converted by the job changing unit to the image forming apparatus.
