REMOTE PRINT CONTROLLER, REMOTE PRINT CONTROL METHOD, REMOTE PRINT CONTROL SYSTEM AND STORAGE MEDIUM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow the remote print controller to select automatically a printer proper to remote print and to allow the printer to print out an electronic mail by selecting a printer to print out the received electronic mail and transferring the electronic mail to the selected printer. SOLUTION: An electronic mail user interface section 103 displays an electronic mail received under the control of an electronic mail transfer section 102 for the user. A data analysis section 104 analyzes the electronic mail as to whether or not a print command is added to the mail. In the case that the print command is added to the electronic mail, the data analysis section 104 analyzes the electronic mail as to whether or not a printer identifier to designate a printer is added to the electronic mail. In the case that the printer identifier is added to the electronic mail, the data analysis section 104 gives the printer identifier to a printer selection section 106 to designate a printer to execute printing. Furthermore, in the case that no printer identifier is added to the electronic mail, the printer selection section 106 selects a proper printer from a printer selection table automatically.
