[ Detailed description ] of the invention
For a better understanding of the technical solution of the present invention, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention refers to the accompanying drawings.
It should be understood that the described embodiments are merely some, but not all, embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
The terminology used in the embodiments of the invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. As used in this application and the appended claims, the singular forms "a," "an," and "the" are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.
It should be understood that the term "and/or" as used herein is merely one way of describing an association of associated objects, meaning that there may be three relationships, e.g., a and/or b, which may represent: the first and second cases exist separately, and the first and second cases exist separately. In addition, the character "/" herein generally indicates that the front and rear associated objects are an "or" relationship.
In the related art, a user generally needs to click a "print" button when performing a print job by using a certain application program, and after finding a corresponding "print option", set each option required by the user, thereby completing the setting of the print option and further completing the print job. However, the related art scheme of setting the print option is effective only for the current job, and when the user performs the print job again, the print option needs to be reset, thereby causing a problem of inconvenient user setting.
In addition, in the related art, since the print driver interface is provided by PPD (PostScript Printer Definition) files and displayed by an application program (e.g., a text viewer) supporting printing, there is caused a problem that the user is inconvenient to set print options, and further, since the specific setting of the print driver by a general user is not well known and the interface of the print driver is simple, when a conflict is generated between print options, the user cannot know what kind of conflict exists between the specific print options, so that the problem of the conflict cannot be solved, and there is caused a problem that printing cannot be performed.
Based on the above, the technical problems to be solved by the invention are as follows: how to quickly set the printing options, so that when a user opens any program or document to perform a printing task after the configuration of the printing options is completed, the user does not need to repeatedly set the printing options, and the printing result wanted by the user is directly obtained.
Fig. 1 is a block diagram of a print option setting system according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, where the system includes: an image forming apparatus 11 and a computer device 12, and the image forming apparatus 11 and the computer device 12 have a connection relationship therebetween. Further, the image forming apparatus 11 includes a designated image forming apparatus 111, and in addition to this, the image forming apparatus 11 may include other image forming apparatuses. Specifically, the image forming apparatus 11 includes, but is not limited to: an image forming apparatus having at least one of printing, scanning, copying, and facsimile functions.
The computer device 12 comprises a processing unit 121 and a storage unit 122, the storage unit 122 comprising a computer program 1221. Specifically, the computer device may be a terminal device, such as a mobile phone terminal, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, an augmented reality (augmented reality, abbreviated as AR)/virtual reality (abbreviated as VR), a vehicle-mounted terminal, or may also be a server or cloud terminal.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the processing unit 121 of the computer apparatus 12 is configured to acquire a designated image forming device 111 for indicating an image forming device for which a default printing option needs to be set.
As an alternative, the process of the processing unit 121 for acquiring the designated image forming apparatus 111 may include: after the computer device 12 establishes a connection relationship with the image forming apparatus 11, the processing unit 121 selects a designated image forming apparatus 111 from the plurality of image forming apparatuses 11.
The storage template 122 is used to store a file corresponding to the print option setting template.
Further, the processing unit 121 is further configured to determine a print option setting template set by the designated image forming apparatus from a file corresponding to the print option setting template stored in the storage template 122, the print option setting template including a plurality of print options; and adjusting default printing options of the designated image forming device into a plurality of printing options in a printing option setting template, so that when a driver corresponding to the designated image forming device executes image processing operation, the default performs imaging processing according to image processing parameters corresponding to the plurality of printing options in the printing option setting template.
Specifically, in the process that the processing unit 121 adjusts default printing options of the designated image forming apparatus to a plurality of printing options in the printing option setting template, the processing unit 121 is specifically configured to send the plurality of printing options in the printing option setting template to a printing configuration file in the operating system and a printing configuration file in the universal UNIX printing system, so that the configuration information of the image forming apparatus in the printing configuration file in the operating system is set to the plurality of printing options corresponding to the printing option setting template, and the configuration information of the image forming apparatus in the printing configuration file in the universal UNIX printing system is also set to the plurality of printing options corresponding to the printing option setting template, so as to complete the adjustment of the plurality of printing options in the printing option setting template.
The storage unit 122 is configured to store an option conflict list such that when the processing unit 121 adjusts default print options of the designated image forming apparatus to a plurality of print options in the print option setting template, the option conflict list is acquired from the storage unit 122, and whether there is a conflict between the plurality of print options is determined from the option conflict list.
The setting system based on the printing options mentioned above adjusts the printing configuration file in the operating system and the printing configuration file in the universal UNIX printing system, so that when the driver corresponding to the image forming apparatus executes the image processing operation, the driver defaults to execute the image processing according to the image processing parameters corresponding to the printing options in the printing option setting template, thereby avoiding the problem that repeated setting is required for each execution of the printing task.
Fig. 2 is a flowchart of a method for setting print options according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, where the method includes:
Step 101, acquiring a designated image forming apparatus.
In this step, the image forming apparatus is designated for indicating that the image forming apparatus of the default printing option needs to be set. The designated image forming apparatus may include at least one image forming apparatus that needs to set a default printing option.
In the embodiment of the present invention, as an alternative, the specific process of acquiring the designated image forming apparatus may include:
Step 1011, creating an image forming apparatus list.
In this step, an image forming apparatus list may be generated by acquiring a plurality of pieces of printing apparatus information transmitted from a plurality of image forming apparatuses connected to a computer apparatus. For example, the image forming apparatus connected to the computer device includes an image forming apparatus a, an image forming apparatus B, and an image forming apparatus C, and the image forming apparatus list thus created includes the image forming apparatus a, the image forming apparatus B, and the image forming apparatus C.
Step 1012, selecting a designated image forming apparatus from the image forming apparatus list.
In this step, at least one image forming apparatus requiring setting of the default printing option may be determined from the image forming apparatus list according to the user's demand, that is, at least one image forming apparatus requiring setting of the default printing option is determined as the designated image forming apparatus.
On the basis of the above-mentioned alternative, in the embodiment of the present invention, the corresponding print option setting template is further set by an application program independent of the driver for the image forming apparatus, the display interface of the application program is set with an option for selecting and designating the corresponding image forming apparatus, and an option for setting the corresponding print option setting template, and the corresponding print option setting template is determined based on the option for designating the corresponding image forming apparatus and the option for setting the corresponding print option setting template in the display interface of the application program.
That is, by setting an application program corresponding to the setting method of the print option, the user can operate the display interface of the application program, thereby setting the print option.
In practical use, for example, as shown in fig. 3, an option for selecting a specific image forming apparatus is provided in the display interface of the application, and after the user clicks operation S101, the image forming apparatus a is selected from the image forming apparatus list as the specific image forming apparatus. In addition, the image forming apparatus a and the image forming apparatus B may be selected from the image forming apparatus list as designated image forming apparatuses by a user operation. That is, the embodiment of the present invention does not limit the number of designated image forming apparatuses.
Step 102, determining a print option setting template set by the designated image forming apparatus.
In this step, the print option setting template includes a plurality of print options. For example, the plurality of printing options include options of "duplex printing/simplex printing", "lateral paper feeding/longitudinal paper feeding", "color printing/black-and-white printing", and the like.
In the embodiment of the invention, the printing option setting template set by the designated image forming device is determined, so that the plurality of printing options in the determined printing option setting template are adjusted in the subsequent step. As an alternative, a plurality of print option setting templates need to be generated before step 102. The method for generating the plurality of printing option setting templates can generate the plurality of printing option setting templates through a printing option configuration tool carried in the computer equipment, and particularly, the printing option configuration tool is used for acquiring the function parameters in the printing drive corresponding to the image forming device, so that on the basis of acquiring the function parameters, the designated function parameters can be selected from the plurality of function parameters according to requirements to generate the plurality of printing option setting templates. In addition, the print option configuration tool is also used for predefining a plurality of saved print option setting templates.
For example, the manner in which the print option setting template is generated may include: acquiring a plurality of functional parameters through a printing drive corresponding to the image forming device; and establishing a plurality of predefined templates according to the plurality of functional parameters, and taking the plurality of predefined templates and the plurality of acquired historical custom templates as a plurality of printing option setting templates, wherein each printing option setting template comprises a plurality of printing options. It should be noted that the function parameters are different from the print options. For example, the functional parameters include a fold-over style, and the fold-over style may specifically include a variety of fold-over style such as a center-over, left-over, etc., while the print option includes a center-over style.
The predefined templates comprise user common templates or complex templates, and the plurality of historical custom templates comprise custom templates added by histories. It should be noted that, the predefined template is a template that is predefined and saved by the print option configuration tool, the history custom template is a template added by the user, and besides the above method for obtaining multiple print option setting templates, multiple print option setting templates may be established in other manners, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
In practical applications, the designated print option setting template may be selected from a plurality of print option setting templates set in advance, thereby realizing determination of the print option setting template set by the designated image forming apparatus. For example, as shown in fig. 4, a plurality of print option setting templates corresponding to the image forming apparatus a including a plurality of templates such as a factory setting template, a print option setting template 1, a print option setting template 2, and the like are displayed in a display interface of the application program. After the user clicks operation S102, the print option setting template 1 is determined from among the plurality of print option setting templates. Further, by clicking the "detail" button, a plurality of print options corresponding to the print option setting template can be viewed.
It should be noted that, for the user, the print option setting template is determined according to the user operation, and for the computer device, the corresponding print option setting template is determined based on the option corresponding to the designated image forming apparatus and the option to set the corresponding print option setting template in the display interface of the application program.
Step 103, adjusting default printing options of the designated image forming device to a plurality of printing options in a printing option setting template, so that when a driver corresponding to the designated image forming device executes image processing operation, the driver defaults to execute imaging processing according to image processing parameters corresponding to the plurality of printing options in the printing option setting template.
In this step, a default print option is used to indicate a print option of the last setting of the specified image forming apparatus. For example, the default print option may be an initial print option or a last adjusted print option.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the process of adjusting the default printing option of the designated image forming apparatus to a plurality of printing options in the printing option setting template may include: and sending the plurality of printing options in the printing option setting template to a printing configuration file in the operating system and a printing configuration file in the universal UNIX printing system, so that the configuration information of the image forming device in the printing configuration file in the operating system is set as the plurality of printing options corresponding to the printing option setting template, and the configuration information of the image forming device in the printing configuration file in the universal UNIX printing system is also set as the plurality of printing options corresponding to the printing option setting template.
Specifically, the above steps are performed according to a hierarchical structure of a computer system provided in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 5, the computer system includes an application layer 21, an operating system layer 22, and a hardware layer 23. The application layer 21 includes, among other things, a printing device configuration tool 211, a first document editing application 212 (e.g., WPS), and a second document editing application 213 (e.g., text editor). The operating system layer 22 includes a system printer interface configuration file 221 (e.g., a print configuration file in an operating system) and a system print service 222 (e.g., a print configuration file in a universal UNIX printing system). The hardware layer 23 includes a print drive interface 231.
Wherein the print device configuration tool 211 has an association relationship with the system printer interface configuration file 221 and the system print service 222, and the print driver interface 231 connects with the system print service 222.
Based on the computer system described above, the embodiment of the present invention transmits the plurality of print options in the print option setting template to the print configuration file (the system printer interface configuration file 221) in the operating system and the print configuration file (the system print service 222) in the universal UNIX printing system, so that the image forming apparatus configuration information in the print configuration file in the operating system is set as the plurality of print options corresponding to the print option setting template, and the image forming apparatus configuration information in the print configuration file in the universal UNIX printing system is also set as the plurality of print options corresponding to the print option setting template. Compared with the mode of setting the printing options through the driver in the prior art, the method and the device avoid the problem that the set printing options are only effective for the current job, when the user executes the printing task again, the printing options are required to be reset, so that the user is inconvenient to set.
In practical application, after the print option setting template is determined, step 103 can be performed to adjust the default print option of the designated image forming apparatus to a plurality of print options in the print option setting template. For example, after the default print option of the designated image forming apparatus is adjusted to a plurality of print options in the print option setting template by the default print option before the print option setting template is not set as shown in fig. 6a by executing step 103, the default print option can be adjusted according to the selected print option setting template to adjust the option (none) in the printer option to the option (saddle stitch) as shown in fig. 6 b.
In addition, the display interface of the application program is also provided with an option to use the print option setting template. When a user clicks an option of using the print option setting template in the display interface, a driver corresponding to the image forming apparatus performs image processing operation by default according to image processing parameters corresponding to a plurality of print options in the print option setting template. For example, as shown in fig. 7, when the user clicks the "apply" button (an option using the print option setting template) by clicking operation S103, the print option setting template of the designated image forming apparatus is set as the print option setting template 1, so that the designated image forming apparatus prints the relevant file according to the print option setting template 1 each time the designated image forming apparatus performs a print job.
In addition to setting the print option setting template of the specified image forming apparatus as the print option setting template 1, the print option setting template of the specified image forming apparatus may be set as a factory setting template, so that all settings of the specified image forming apparatus are restored to factory settings. For example, as shown in fig. 8a, after the user clicks the "restore default" button by clicking the operation S104, as shown in fig. 8b, the print option setting template of the image forming apparatus is restored to the default setting template, so that all settings of the image forming apparatus a are restored to the factory setting, and the problem that the printing result does not meet the user requirement due to reuse of the originally set template during printing is avoided. Further, before sending the plurality of print options in the print option setting template to the print configuration file in the operating system and the print configuration file in the universal UNIX printing system, the method further comprises:
Step 103a, judging whether conflicts exist among a plurality of printing options according to a pre-established option conflict list, if yes, executing step 103b; if not, continuing to execute the steps of sending the plurality of printing options in the printing option setting template to the printing configuration file in the operating system and the printing configuration file in the universal UNIX printing system.
In this step, for example, in the case where the image forming apparatus a supports duplex printing, and the sheet does not support duplex printing, there is a conflict between duplex printing supported by the image forming apparatus in the print option and duplex printing supported by the sheet. Based on the above, an option conflict list can be established by acquiring a plurality of print options having conflicts.
