Detailed Description
The embodiment of the application provides a method and a device for controlling a print job, which are used for improving the efficiency of searching for a specific print job in a plurality of print jobs by a user.
When a printing apparatus performs printing, it is often necessary to receive a plurality of print jobs, arrange the plurality of print jobs in a print queue, and sequentially perform printing. As shown in fig. 1, the printing apparatus 100 includes a controller 101, a display apparatus 102, and an input apparatus 103, and the printing apparatus 100 displays a plurality of print jobs on a display screen and receives an operation instruction of a user through the input apparatus 103 to control the print jobs in order to facilitate the user to operate and monitor the printing apparatus. The display device 102 and the input device 103 may be separate devices or may be an integrated touch screen.
The width of the printing list frame is fixed, and the printing list frame is limited to the width of the list, so that all job information cannot be displayed, a certain barrier effect is generated on the next operation decision of an operator, in addition, when too many jobs exist in the queue, the operator needs to search for the specified job, the specified job can only be searched by sliding the sliding strip on the right side of the queue, and the time is excessively wasted. The above two points result in a reduction in queue operability and execution efficiency, and therefore, it is required to add a search function and a dialog box configuring column display.
In view of the above problems, the present application aims to quickly and accurately search for a job related to a specified text through a search box, control display and hiding of columns of a print list using a dialog configuration list, and achieve acquisition of different information of the job to improve work efficiency of an operator. In order to facilitate an operator to check information of a designated job before, during, or after a print job and to quickly search for the designated print job, a display window of a configuration column and a queue search function need to be created. The configuration column is the column in which the job information item is located.
As shown in fig. 2, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for controlling a print job, including steps 201 to 204.
201. The printing device displays a print job interface.
The printing apparatus displays a print job interface on the display apparatus, and the print job interface is a plurality of print jobs arranged in order.
202. The printing device receives a job keyword.
The printing apparatus receives a job keyword input by a user through an input apparatus. The job key is used to describe characteristics of the print job that the user needs to find.
203. The printing apparatus retrieves a target print job corresponding to the job keyword among the plurality of print jobs.
The printing equipment compares the job keywords with the job information of each printing job, and determines the printing job corresponding to the job information and the job keywords as the target printing job.
204. The printing apparatus adjusts the arrangement position of the target print job to the head of the arrangement order of the plurality of print jobs.
After determining the target print job, the printing device rearranges all the print jobs in the print job interface, and adjusts the target print job to be in front of the other print jobs except the target print job in all the print jobs, so that the target print job is arranged at the head in all the print jobs.
In the embodiment, the print jobs are retrieved by using the job keywords, and the target print jobs obtained by retrieval are arranged at the head of the arrangement sequence of the print jobs, so that when a user searches for a specific print job, only the print job at the head needs to be consulted, all the print jobs do not need to be consulted, and the efficiency of searching for the user is improved.
As shown in fig. 3, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for controlling a print job, including steps 301 to 307.
301. The printing device displays a print job interface.
The printing apparatus acquires a plurality of print jobs, arranges the print jobs in a print queue, and sequentially prints. The printing apparatus sets all print jobs in the print queue within the print industry plane. The printing apparatus displays a print job interface on the display apparatus, and the print job interface is a plurality of print jobs arranged in order. The display device may be a display screen or a projector, etc.
Each print job has a plurality of kinds of job information, and when a plurality of print jobs are arranged in a list form to obtain a print list, each column of the print list fills in the same kind of job information of a different print job so that each column of the print list shows one kind of job information item. The job information item may include: name of person requesting printing, number of copies to be printed, printing color, printing material, printing sequence number, file volume, file name, file format, and the like. When a plurality of print jobs are arranged in a list form to obtain a print list, the print job interface may be a print list box.
Print jobs in the print industry can be arranged in a print order, with print jobs printed first ranked in front and print jobs printed later ranked in the back; or the print jobs within the print industry may be arranged according to job information, such as by pinyin for a file name, by file size, by name of the printing requester, etc.
302. The printing device receives a job keyword.
The printing apparatus displays a search box on the display apparatus, the search box including a text input box and a search button. The printing device may also display prompt text in the search box for prompting a method of use or role of the search box.
The printing device inputs text into the text input box through the input device, displays the input text in the search box, and hides the prompt text. The input text can be characters, numbers, special symbols and the like. The printing device receives a signal that the user clicks the search button through the input device, or the printing device receives a signal that the user taps a shortcut key of the search button through the input device. Input devices typically include a mouse and keyboard, or a touch screen. The printing apparatus determines the input text as a job keyword. The job key is used to describe characteristics of the print job that the user needs to find.
After the printing apparatus receives the signal that the search button is clicked, the printing apparatus changes the display style of the search button. Such as changing the color, size, or shape of the search button, etc.
303. The printing apparatus retrieves a target print job corresponding to the job keyword among the plurality of print jobs.
The printing equipment compares the job keywords with the job information of each print job, and can compare only one kind of job information or multiple kinds of job information. For example, the printing device may compare the job keyword with only the file name of each print job, and if the file name of one or some print jobs matches the job keyword, determine the print job as the target print job; the printing device can also compare the job keywords with the printing requester name and the printing material of each printing job, and if the printing requester name or the printing material of one or some printing jobs is matched with the job keywords, the printing job is determined as the target printing job.
Whether the operation information is matched with the operation key word or not is judged, and the coincidence degree of the operation information and the operation key word can be judged through Boolean operation. The job keyword may be determined as a whole, or the job keyword may be divided into a plurality of characters.
304. The printing apparatus adjusts the arrangement position of the target print job to the head of the arrangement order of the plurality of print jobs.
After determining the target print job, the printing device rearranges all the print jobs in the print job interface, and adjusts the target print job to be in front of the other print jobs except the target print job in all the print jobs, so that the target print job is arranged at the head in all the print jobs. The top is the foremost line of the print list, and when only one target print job exists, the top is the foremost line 1; when there are N target print jobs, the first is the first line 1 to the Nth.
When there are a plurality of target print jobs, the arrangement position of the target print job may be adjusted to the top of the arrangement order of the plurality of print jobs in various ways. Assume that the target print job is N, N being an integer equal to or greater than 2.
(1) The printing device obtains the arrangement sequence of the N target printing jobs on the printing job interface. This sort order is the relative sort order of the N target print jobs before all the print jobs are rearranged.
The printing apparatus adjusts the arrangement positions of the N target print jobs to the top of the arrangement order of the plurality of print jobs in accordance with the arrangement order of the N target print jobs. The printing apparatus section changes the relative arrangement order of the N target print jobs before all the print jobs are not rearranged, just to put the N target print jobs in order at the top of the arrangement order of the plurality of print jobs. For example, there are five print jobs, where there are three destination print jobs, and the order of the first five print jobs without rearranging all print jobs is, from front to back: the printing device adjusts the arrangement positions of the 3 target print jobs to the head of the arrangement sequence of the plurality of print jobs according to the arrangement sequence of the N target print jobs to obtain an arrangement sequence: a first target print job, a second target print job, a third target print job, a first print job, a second print job.
(2) The printing apparatus determines an arrangement standard. The ranking criteria may be one or more of the job information items. For example, the ranking criterion may be file volume; the arrangement standard may also be a file format and file names, and the file format is arranged first, and the file format is the same and arranged by file names. The ranking criterion may also be a degree of matching of the job keyword and the job information, such as a boolean operation overlap ratio of the job keyword and the job information.
The printing apparatus determines an arrangement order of the N target print jobs according to an arrangement standard. For example, when the arrangement standard is the file volumes, the file volumes may be arranged in descending order or in ascending order; when the arrangement criterion is the degree of matching between the job keyword and the job information, the job keyword and the job information may be arranged in descending order of the boolean operation overlap ratio.
The printing apparatus adjusts the arrangement positions of the N target print jobs to the top of the arrangement order of the plurality of print jobs in accordance with the arrangement order of the N target print jobs.
305. The printing apparatus sets a display style of a target print job.
The printing apparatus sets a display style of the target print job so that the display style of the target print job is different from the display style of the other print jobs than the target print job. The display style includes background color, font size, font color, bold, italics, etc. The display style of the target print job is different from the display styles of other print jobs except the target print job, so that a user can conveniently and quickly distinguish the target print job from all the print jobs in the print job interface. For example, the printing apparatus sets the background color of the target print job to gray, and the other print jobs except the target print job in the print job interface maintain the background color of white.
The execution steps of step 305 and step 304 are not limited to those shown in fig. 3, and step 305 may be executed first, then step 304 may be executed, or both may be executed simultaneously, which is not limited in particular.
306. The printing apparatus receives a target job information item input by a user.
The printing apparatus may sequentially arrange a plurality of print jobs in a list form, the list including a plurality of columns, each column representing one of the job information items of the print job.
The printing device receives a target job information item selected by a user through an input device, the target job information item being at least one of a plurality of job information items.
The print job interface includes a configuration button and a dialog box form. The configuration button is associated with a dialog box form, and the dialog box form is associated with a print list. After the configuration button is clicked, the dialog box window may expand. An option box in the dialog box form can control the print list.
The printing device receives a signal from a user clicking a configuration button through an input device.
The printing device displays a dialog box window with an option box for the job information item. Each of the option boxes is used to confirm hiding or display of one job information item. A plurality of operation information items can be displayed in the dialog box window, an option box is arranged for each operation information item, and the operation information items are selected and displayed or hidden in the option box. For example, the job information options displayed in the dialog box window are the number of print copies, print color, file volume, and file name, an option box is set in front of each job information option, and the theme of the option box may be "hidden or not," and is to select the column in which the corresponding job information option is hidden, and not to select the column in which the corresponding job information option is displayed. The theme of the option box may be "whether to display", and the option box indicates not to select the column in which the corresponding job information option is hidden, and indicates to display the column in which the corresponding job information option is displayed. The option box can be a left option and a right option, the right option is selected to hide the column where the corresponding operation information option is located, and the right option is selected to display the column where the corresponding operation information option is located.
The printing device receives a checkup signal of the option box determined by the user through the input device.
The printing device determines a target job information item according to the checkup signal. The target job information item may be a target job information item to be hidden, or may be a target job information item to be displayed. If the hidden operation is carried out, determining the checked and hidden job information item as a target job information item; if the display operation is performed, the check-displayed job information item is determined as the target job information item.
