Problems solved by technology

Even in the case where a sample sheet is output within a certain period of time after the operator has provided an instruction to print the sample sheet, if the operator cannot grasp the detailed content of the response from the image forming apparatus, for example, whether the instruction to output the sample sheet Already accepted, how long it will take to output a sample paper, and what content the sample paper will have, may detract from convenience

Embodiment Construction

[0022] figure 1 is a configuration diagram illustrating an image forming apparatus 3 which is an example of an image forming apparatus according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

[0023] The image forming apparatus 3 is a digital color printer or the like, and is configured to perform image processing on image data received from a host computer such as a personal computer using the printing control apparatus 1 to convert the image data into yellow (Y), magenta ( M), color image data of cyan (C) and black (K), and then form a color image on paper as an example of a recording medium based on the color image data using the image output device 2 to generate a print result. Alternatively, the image forming device 3 may be a monochrome printer.

[0024] The image forming apparatus 3 is capable of generating a sample sheet in response to an operation performed by an operator of the image forming apparatus 3 while generating a print result composed of a plurality ...

Abstract

The invention provides an image forming apparatus, an image forming system, and an image forming method. The image forming apparatus includes a generating unit, a print instruction providing unit, and a display. The generating unit generates print data of a sample sheet if a request for outputting the sample sheet is received while print data formed of plural pages is being generated. The print instruction providing unit provides a print instruction for the print data of the sample sheet after providing a print instruction for the print data that has been generated. The display displays, based on the print data of the sample sheet, an attribute of the sample sheet.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image forming apparatus, an image forming system, and an image forming method. Background technique [0002] There is an image forming apparatus that, even if an external event occurs while printing is in progress, can keep the responsiveness to the external event within a certain range (for example, see Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No.2009-113308). [0003] The image forming device includes an image output device that forms an image, and a print control device that controls the operation of the image output device. The print control apparatus includes: a determination unit that determines a maximum number of pages for a print instruction based on a paper size indicated by paper attribute information included in a print job that has been input so that the length of a paper conveyance path becomes constant; a unit that sends a print instruction to the image output device so that the number of p...
