Print server, control method of print server, and storage medium

摘要

When a print server according to the present invention receives a printing cancellation request from a load balancer, the print server acquires information of a print job as a target of the printing cancellation request and information of a printing device. Then, the print server determines whether a status of the acquired print job is a first status where printing cancellation processing is to be executed by a print server in charge of the printing device, a second status where the printing cancellation processing is to be executed by the printing device, or a third status where the printing cancellation request is to be handled as an error. Thereafter, the print server executes the printing cancellation processing according to the determination result.

主权项

1. A print server in a printing system in which a load balancer executes processing for distributing requests to a plurality of print servers, the print server comprising:
a receiving unit configured to receive a printing cancellation request from the load balancer; an acquisition unit configured to acquire information of a print job as a target of the printing cancellation request received by the receiving unit and information of a printing device; a determination unit configured to determine whether a status of the acquired print job is a first status where printing cancellation processing is to be executed by a print server in charge of the printing device, a second status where the printing cancellation processing is to be executed by the printing device, or a third status where the printing cancellation request is to be handled as an error; and a control unit configured to control the print server in charge of the printing device to execute the printing cancellation processing in a case where the determination unit determines that the status of the print job is the first status, control the printing device to execute the printing cancellation processing in a case where the determination unit determines that the status of the print job is the second status, and control the print server to send an error notification indicating that the printing cancellation processing cannot be executed in a case where the determination unit determines that the status of the print job is the third status.
