发明名称 System for providing useful summarized setting information for multi-layered user interface
摘要 A system for providing useful summarized setting information is disclosed. The system comprises a memory of a computer and a printer driver. The computer has a display and is connected to a printer, while the printer driver provides a print setting multi-layered user interface (UI). The memory provides a means for the printer driver to store and retrieve a set of print setting data, which is representative of a previously selected permutation of printer features and setup options. When a user initiates a session to perform print setting operations, the printer driver retrieves the print setting data from the memory and presents the print setting multi-layered UI on the display. In addition to processing the print setting data to present the print setting data using the print setting multi-layered UI for the user to make changes, the printer driver also processes the print setting data to provide a summary bar. The printer driver then presents the print setting data as graphical and textual descriptions in the summary bar, which are otherwise hidden or too lengthy for the user to comprehend in the form presented in the print setting multi-layered UI.
