[ detailed description ] embodiments
For better understanding of the technical solutions of the present invention, the following detailed descriptions of the embodiments of the present invention are provided with reference to the accompanying drawings.
It should be understood that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present 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 the examples of the present invention 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 type of associative relationship that describes an associated object, meaning that three types of relationships may exist, e.g., A and/or B, may mean: a exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, and B exists alone. In addition, the character "/" herein generally indicates that the former and latter related objects are in an "or" relationship.
Before introducing the cloud print server provided by the invention, a technical scheme adopted by the invention is briefly described. In the prior art, generally, only one cloud print driver with a standard interface is provided in a cloud print server provided by a cloud print manufacturer, and if a print terminal manufacturer that does not use the cloud print driver with the standard interface wants to implement a cloud print service, a firmware program inside a print terminal that wants to implement cloud print needs to be modified according to the standard interface provided by the cloud print driver, so that the print terminal can receive and analyze a cloud print job.
For example, the cloud platform and the manufacturer b 1 respectively make the number of prints and the paper size in the print control parameters. That is to say, the cloud platform sets the cloud printing standard printing control parameter type, and the manufacturer B1 sets the self-defined printing control parameter type. It should be noted that the types of printing control parameters customized by each manufacturer may be the same or different.
Taking the printing control parameter types including the number of printing copies and the paper size as examples, the parameter type of the number of printing copies formulated by the cloud platform is 0x87, and the parameter type of the parameter of the paper size is 0x 32; the parameter type of the parameter of the self-defined printing number of copies of the type-A printing terminal of the type-B manufacturer 1 is 0x04, and the parameter type of the parameter of the paper size is 0x06, so that due to different printing control parameter types, if the printing control parameter type of the type-B manufacturer 1 type-A printing terminal is not modified, or under the condition that the cloud platform does not store the driver of the type-B manufacturer 1 type-A printing terminal, the cloud printing driver in the cloud printing server of the cloud platform cannot directly control the type-B manufacturer 1 type-A printing terminal to perform job printing.
