Hereafter, when describing the slave units 10A, 10B, ... without distinction, they will simply be referred to as "slave unit 10".

[0025] The slave unit 10 and the master unit 20 are able to communicate with each other via communication means N2. In this embodiment, multiple slave units 10 are connected to one master unit 20 via communication means N2 without going through a server. Note that the number of slave units 10 and master units 20 is not limited to the number shown in Figure 1. Also, in this embodiment, an internal communication line such as a LAN or WAN is used as the communication means N2. However, this is not the only example. For example, a public communication line such as the internet or a telephone line may be used as the communication means N2, or a combination of internal and public communication lines may be used. Also, in this embodiment, a wireless communication line is used as the communication means N2. However, a wired communication line may be used as the communication means N2, or a combination of wired and wireless communication lines may be used.

[0026] Furthermore, the master unit 20 and the user terminal 30 are able to communicate with each other via communication means N1. In this embodiment, communication means N1 is a public communication line such as the Internet or a telephone line. However, it is not limited to this example.

[0034] An example of the slave unit 10 and master unit 20 is an image forming apparatus. However, it is not limited to this example. The slave unit 10 and master unit 20 may be any information processing devices. Here, information processing includes, for example, the process of printing from character data or image data, the process of generating or processing data using the equipment provided by the slave unit 10 and master unit 20, and the process of exchanging data between the slave unit 10 and master unit 20.

[0035] As shown in Figure 3, the slave unit 10 has the following components: CPU 11, ROM 12, RAM 13, storage 14, input unit 15, display unit 16, communication interface 17, image processing unit 41, and print control unit 42. Each component is connected to the others via a bus 19 so that they can communicate with each other. Since the slave unit 10 and the master unit 20 have a typical configuration for an image forming apparatus, the explanation will be given using the slave unit 10 as a representative example, and the explanation of the master unit 20 will be omitted, with only the corresponding symbols shown in Figure 3.

[0036] The CPU 11 is a central processing unit that executes various programs and controls various components. Specifically, the CPU 11 reads a program from the ROM 12 or storage 14 and executes the program using the RAM 13 as a working area. The CPU 11 controls each of the above components and performs various calculations according to the program stored in the ROM 12 or storage 14. In this embodiment, the information processing program 12A is stored in the ROM 12 or storage 14.

[0037] ROM12 stores various programs and data. RAM13 temporarily stores programs or data as a working area. Storage14 consists of a storage device such as an HDD or SSD and stores various programs, including the operating system, and various data.

[0038] The input unit 15 includes a pointing device such as a mouse and a keyboard, and is used for various types of input.

[0039] The display unit 16 is, for example, a liquid crystal display and displays various information. The display unit 16 may also function as an input unit 15 by employing a touch panel system.

[0040] Communication I / F17 is an interface for communicating with other devices such as the master unit 20, and standards such as Ethernet®, FDDI, and Wi-Fi® are used.

[0041] The image processing unit 41 performs various image processing. The print control unit 42 performs image forming processing, detection processing to detect paper fed into the tray, and transport processing to transport paper, etc.

[0042] Next, with reference to Figure 4, the information processing flow in the slave device 10 of this embodiment will be described. Information processing is performed by the CPU 11 reading the information processing program 12A from the ROM 12 or storage 14, expanding it into the RAM 13, and executing it.

[0043] In step S100 of Figure 4, the CPU 11 waits via the input unit 15 until it receives an instruction to output the job information registered in the master unit 20 using its own device, the slave unit 10. When the CPU 11 receives the instruction to output the job information registered in the master unit 20 using its own device, the slave unit 10 (step S100: YES), the process proceeds to step S102.

[0044] In step S102, the CPU 11 sends an instruction to the master unit 20 to transmit stored job information, which is identification information that identifies the job information that the user has previously registered with the master unit 20, and the color conversion information associated with the job information.

[0045] Here, color conversion information refers to information indicating the color space to be applied when adjusting the color tone of associated job information before outputting it. Identification information for identifying color conversion information includes the name of the color conversion information or its ID (Identification).

[0046] In step S104, the CPU 11 displays the stored job list, which is a list of stored job information received from the master unit 20, on the display unit 16. Alternatively, in step S104, the CPU 11 may display only the job information from the stored job information received from the master unit 20 in a list.

[0047] In step S106, the CPU 11 waits until it receives a selection of any of the stored job information displayed in the stored job list via the input unit 15. Once the CPU 11 receives a selection of any of the stored job information (step S106: YES), the process proceeds to step S108.

[0048] In step S108, the CPU 11 determines whether or not color conversion information is associated with the job information in the stored job information that was selected in step S106 (hereinafter referred to as the "selected job"). In other words, the CPU 11 determines whether or not identification information is registered together with the selected job. If the CPU 11 determines that color conversion information is associated with the selected job (step S108: YES), it proceeds to step S110. On the other hand, if the CPU 11 determines that color conversion information is not associated with the selected job (step S108: NO), it proceeds to step S128.

[0049] In step S110, the CPU 11 queries the master unit 20 to determine whether or not color conversion information related to the identification information associated with the selected job is registered in the master unit 20.

[0050] In step S112, the CPU 11 determines whether color conversion information related to identification information associated with the selected job is registered in both the slave unit 10 and the master unit 20, which are its own devices. Specifically, the CPU 11 determines whether color conversion information related to identification information associated with the selected job is registered in the storage 14 of its own device and whether the same color conversion information is also registered in the master unit 20. If the CPU 11 determines that color conversion information related to identification information associated with the selected job is registered in both the slave unit 10 and the master unit 20 (step S112: YES), it proceeds to step S114.

[0051] In step S114, the CPU 11 determines from the storage 14 whether the predetermined application device (hereinafter simply referred to as "application device") is the child device 10. If the CPU 11 determines that the application device is the child device 10 (step S114: YES), the process proceeds to step S116. The process of registering the application device with the storage 14 will be described in detail later.

[0052] In step S116, the CPU 11 applies the color conversion information related to the identification information registered in the slave device 10 and associated with the selected job, outputs the selected job, and terminates this information processing.

[0053] Returning to step S114, if the CPU 11 determines that the application device is not the slave device 10, i.e., the application device is the master device 20 (step S114: NO), it proceeds to step S118. In step S118, the CPU 11 applies the color conversion information related to the identification information registered in the master device 20 and associated with the selected job, outputs the selected job, and terminates this information processing.

[0054] Returning to step S112, if neither the slave unit 10 nor the master unit 20 has registered color conversion information related to the identification information associated with the selected job (step S112: NO), the CPU 11 proceeds to step S120. In step S120, the CPU 11 determines whether only the slave unit 10, which is its own device, has registered color conversion information related to the identification information associated with the selected job. Specifically, the CPU 11 determines whether the color conversion information related to the identification information associated with the selected job is registered in the storage 14 of its own device and whether the color conversion information is not registered in the master unit 20. If only the slave unit 10, which is its own device, has registered color conversion information related to the identification information associated with the selected job (step S120: YES), the CPU 11 proceeds to step S122.

[0055] In step S122, the CPU 11 determines whether the application device registered in the storage 14 is the slave device 10, which is itself. If the application device is the slave device 10, which is itself (step S122: YES), the CPU 11 proceeds to step S116. On the other hand, if the application device is not the slave device 10, that is, if the application device is the master device 20 (step S122: NO), the CPU 11 proceeds to step S128.

[0056] Returning to step S120, if the CPU 11 determines that no color conversion information related to the identification information associated with the selected job is registered in the slave unit 10 (step S120: NO), it proceeds to step S124. In step S124, the CPU 11 determines whether the color conversion information related to the identification information associated with the selected job is registered only in the master unit 20. Specifically, the CPU 11 determines whether the color conversion information related to the identification information associated with the selected job is not registered in the storage 14 of its own device, and whether the color conversion information is registered in the master unit 20. If the CPU 11 determines that the color conversion information related to the identification information associated with the selected job is registered only in the master unit 20 (step S124: YES), it proceeds to step S126. On the other hand, if the CPU 11 determines that no color conversion information related to the identification information associated with the selected job is registered in the master unit 20, that is, if no color conversion information related to the identification information associated with the selected job is registered in either the slave unit 10 or the master unit 20 (step S124: NO), it proceeds to step S128.

[0057] In step S126, the CPU 11 determines whether the application device registered in the storage 14 is the master unit 20. If the application device is the master unit 20 (step S126: YES), the CPU 11 proceeds to step S118. On the other hand, if the application device is not the master unit 20, i.e., the application device is the slave unit 10 (step S126: NO), the CPU 11 proceeds to step S128.

[0058] In step S128, the CPU 11 outputs the selected job without applying the color conversion information and terminates this information processing.

[0059] Next, with reference to Figure 5, the flow of pre-processing in the information processing system 100 of this embodiment will be described. Pre-processing is performed by the CPU 31 of the user terminal 30 reading the pre-processing program 32A from the ROM 32 or storage 34, loading it into the RAM 33, and executing it.

[0060] In step S200 of Figure 5, the CPU 31 of the user terminal 30 sends an instruction to the slave unit 10 to register either the slave unit 10 or the master unit 20 as the applicable device.

[0061] Meanwhile, in step S202, the CPU 11 of the slave unit 10 registers the applicable device received from the user terminal 30 in the storage 14.

[0062] In step S204, the CPU 31 of the user terminal 30 sends an instruction to the master unit 20 to register the job information and identification information (i.e., stored job information) that identifies the job information and the color conversion information associated with the job information.

[0063] Meanwhile, in step S206, the CPU 21 of the master unit 20 registers the accumulated job information received from the user terminal 30 into the storage 24.

[0066] For example, in this embodiment, if the device to which the application device and the device that registers the color conversion information related to the identification information associated with the selected job do not match, the CPU 11 outputs the selected job without applying the color conversion information. However, this is not the only example. In this case, the CPU 11 may choose not to output the selected job, or it may output the selected job after applying the color conversion information.

[0067] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the applicable device was determined before the job information was registered with the master unit 20 by the user terminal 30. However, this is not the only example. The applicable device may be determined after the job information is registered with the master unit 20 by the user terminal 30.

Furthermore, the information processing program 12A according to this embodiment may be acquired from an external device via a communication I / F 17.

[0072] Furthermore, although the above embodiment describes a case in which the processing in the information processing system 100 is realized by a software configuration using a computer by executing a program, the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the processing in the information processing system 100 may also be realized by a hardware configuration or a combination of a hardware configuration and a software configuration.

[0073] Furthermore, the configuration of the slave unit 10, master unit 20, and user terminal 30 described in the above embodiment is merely an example, and it goes without saying that unnecessary parts may be deleted or new parts added without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
