发明名称 Control system, control apparatus, control method, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium
摘要 A control system that monitors a calibration status of a printer includes the following components. An obtaining unit obtains information that identifies a common media type to be used in calibration by a monitoring-target printer. A first determining unit determines whether a calibration status of the printer satisfies a first condition in accordance with a printing amount of the printer. A second determining unit determines whether a recording medium corresponding to the common media type is held in the printer by using the obtained information. A control unit causes the printer to perform calibration by causing the printer to perform printing on the recording medium corresponding to the common media type in a case where it is determined that the calibration status of the printer satisfies the first condition and that the recording medium corresponding to the common media type is held in the printer.

主权项 1. A control system that monitors a calibration status of a printer, comprising: an obtaining unit configured to obtain information that identifies a common media type to be used in calibration by a printer serving as a monitoring target, the printer being capable of using a plurality of media types, a result of calibration performed using the common media type being applied to another media type; a first determining unit configured to determine whether a calibration status of the printer satisfies a first condition in accordance with a printing amount of the printer; a second determining unit configured to determine whether a recording medium corresponding to the common media type is held in the printer by using the information obtained by the obtaining unit; and a control unit configured to cause the printer to perform calibration by causing the printer to perform printing on the recording medium corresponding to the common media type in a case where the first determining unit determines that the calibration status of the printer satisfies the first condition and the second determining unit determines that the recording medium corresponding to the common media type is held in the printer.
