Abstract

An information processing apparatus comprises a first installer for installing a driver corresponding to the image output apparatus, wherein the first installer is executed to install, in the information processing apparatus, a first driver and a second installer for installing a second driver, the installed first driver includes: unit configured to generate a first print queue to connect to a first connection port of the image output apparatus; unit configured to transmit an address acquisition request and acquire an address of a second connection port of the image output apparatus; and unit configured to, upon accepting an instruction to generate a second print queue using the print server as a connection destination, launch the second installer to install the second driver, and generate the second print queue, and the launched second installer generates the second print queue using the address of the second connection port that is acquired.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a printing system, a control method and an information processing device. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method of installing a printer driver and generating a print queue in a printing system including an image output device connected to a network, a print server, and a client device. Background technique [0002] When a client device outputs an image using an image output device connected to a network, it is necessary to install a printer driver corresponding to the image output device in the client device and to register a print queue. This operation usually takes the following method. The user acquires and executes a printer driver installer (installer) to install the printer driver. Next, the print queue of the image output device to be used is registered in the system. [0003] An image output device connected to a network often uses a plurality of connection protocols and can cope with various c...
