Information processing apparatus for managing a non-print job in a print queue, recording medium, and control method

摘要

When a job is a non-print job, an information processing apparatus writes dummy data to a printing apparatus during job-end processing. Alternatively, when print data is not written to the printing apparatus during the job-end processing, the information processing apparatus directly instructs a print queue to hide the management information of a non-print job.

1. An information processing apparatus in which management information for managing a job is displayed in a print queue of the information processing apparatus, and end-of-processing information that changes the display of the management information of the job in the print queue from a non-completed state to a completed state is received from a printing apparatus after the job is transmitted through a communication path to the printing apparatus, the information processing apparatus comprising:
a determination unit configured to determine whether a job corresponding to the management information in the print queue is a non-print job of which print data of the job to be printed by the printing apparatus is not transmitted to the printing apparatus; and a transmission unit configured, if the determination unit determines that the job is the non-print job, to transmit dummy data which corresponds to the non-print job and which is not printed by the printing apparatus to the printing apparatus, wherein a language monitor executes the determination unit, and wherein the transmission unit receives end-of-processing information of the dummy data after transmitting the dummy data to the printing apparatus, so that the management information of the non-print job in the print queue is changed from a non- completed state to a completed state.
