Description

上記目的を達成するために、本発明の印刷制御システムは、印刷制御データを生成する印刷データ処理部、及び前記印刷データ処理部で生成された前記印刷制御データを送信する接続部を有する印刷制御装置と、前記印刷制御装置の装置アドレスを記憶するサーバー記憶部、及び前記装置アドレスを送信する制御部を有して所定のサーバーアドレスに配設されるゲートサーバーと、印刷を行う印刷部、前記サーバーアドレスを記憶する装置記憶部、前記装置記憶部が記憶する前記サーバーアドレスの前記ゲートサーバーに前記装置アドレスの要求を送信して当該要求に応じて受信した前記装置アドレスの前記印刷制御装置の前記接続部との間で通信経路を確立する通信制御部、前記通信制御部で確立された前記通信経路で、前記接続部から前記印刷制御データを受信する通信部、及び前記通信部で受信した前記印刷制御データに基づいて前記印刷部を制御する印刷制御部を有する印刷装置と、を備えることを特徴とする。
本発明の構成によれば、印刷装置は、ゲートサーバーのアドレスを記憶する。そして、印刷制御装置と通信経路を確立する場合、印刷制御装置のアドレスをゲートサーバーに問い合わせ、問い合わせに応じて取得したアドレスに基づいて、印刷制御装置との間で通信経路を確立する。このため、印刷装置は、印刷制御装置と通信経路の確立時に、ゲートサーバーにアクセスすればよく、印刷制御装置のアドレスを管理する必要がない。従って、ユーザーは、印刷装置をシステムに導入する時や、通信経路の確立時、通信経路を確立する印刷制御装置の変更があった場合等に印刷制御装置のアドレスを入力する等の作業を行わなくてよい。 In order to achieve the above object, a print control system according to the present invention includes a print data processing unit that generates print control data and a connection unit that transmits the print control data generated by the print data processing unit. device and the server storage unit for storing the device address of the print control apparatus, and a gate server disposed in a predetermined server address and a control unit that transmits及beauty before Symbol device address, a printing unit for performing printing , before Symbol apparatus memory unit for storing the server address, the apparatus the print controller of the device address received in response request a send the request of the device address to the gate server of the server address storage unit stores a communication control unit for establishing a communication path between said connecting portion of the device, in the communication path established by the communication control unit, before the said connecting portion Communication unit for receiving print control data, and characterized in that it comprises a printing device having a print control unit for controlling the printing section based on the print control data received by the communication unit.
According to the configuration of the present invention, the printing apparatus stores the address of the gate server. When establishing a communication path with the print control apparatus, the address of the print control apparatus is inquired of the gate server, and a communication path is established with the print control apparatus based on the address acquired in response to the inquiry. Therefore, the printing apparatus only needs to access the gate server when establishing a communication path with the printing control apparatus, and does not need to manage the address of the printing control apparatus. Therefore, when a user installs a printing device into the system, establishes a communication route, or changes the print control device that establishes the communication route, the user performs an operation such as inputting the address of the print control device. It is not necessary.
