FIG. 6 is a flowchart for explaining operation processing of an MFP application that the mobile terminal has according to the first embodiment.
Each step of this flow chart is processed by the CPU 201 expanding the control program stored in the memory such as the ROM 202 into the RAM 203 and executing it. The client information includes the user name and terminal type, and the user name is set before the process starts. The terminal type is acquired from the OS 350 and held in the RAM 203 . The terminal type includes an OS name, OS version, terminal name, and the like.

In S601, when the MFP application icon 811 is tapped on the home screen 810 of FIG. 8, the MFP application 300 is activated and displays the application home screen 820 shown in FIG. 8B, for example. Subsequently, in S602, when the device search button 823 in the application home screen 820 is selected, the MFP application 300 executes device search. The MFP application 300 displays a list of searched devices on the device selection screen 830 shown in FIG. 8C, for example.

Next, in S<b>603 , the MFP application 300 determines whether a device has been selected on the device selection screen 830 . If no device has been selected, the process returns to S603. When the device is selected, the MFP application 300 transitions the screen to the application home screen 840 of FIG. 9A. Then, the process proceeds to S604.

Next, in S<b>604 , MFP application 300 determines whether a function corresponding to the job type has been selected in job menu 822 in application home screen 840 . If no function has been selected, the process returns to S604. If a function has been selected, the process proceeds to S605. Subsequently, in S605, the MFP application 300 detects a job execution instruction. Specifically, the MFP application 300 displays a job button list screen 850 (FIG. 9B) corresponding to the function selected in S604. When the user selects a job using the job button 851, the MFP application 300 displays a job setting confirmation screen 860 shown in FIG. 9C. When the user selects start button 862, MFP application 300 detects a job execution instruction.

The process of S605 may be executed by the user bringing the mobile terminal 100 close to the device (MFP 110) selected in S603 to perform short-range wireless communication. In other words, when the user brings portable terminal 100 close to MFP 110 while job setting confirmation screen 860 is displayed on portable terminal 100, portable terminal 100 automatically establishes wireless communication with MFP 110, and executes the job. It may be transmitted to MFP 110 .

Next, in S606, the MFP application 300 acquires setting information (support setting information) supported by the MFP 110 from the MFP 110 selected in S603. The MFP application 300 may directly acquire the setting information supported by the MFP 110 from the MFP 110, or may acquire only the model information of the MFP 110, and based on the acquired model information, acquire the setting information supported by the MFP 110. may decide.

In step S607, the MFP application 300 determines whether or not the job setting values are supported by the MFP 110 based on the support setting information, that is, whether or not the job setting values include setting values that the MFP 110 cannot execute. If the job setting values include setting values that cannot be executed by the MFP 110 (unsupported setting values), the job setting values are not supported by the MFP 110 . Therefore, in this case, the process proceeds to S608. If the job setting values do not include setting values not supported by the MFP 110 , the job setting values are supported by the MFP 110 . Therefore, in this case, the process proceeds to S609.

In step S<b>608 , the MFP application 300 automatically corrects (automatically corrects) setting values not supported by the MFP 110 , which are included in the job setting values, to setting values executable by the MFP 110 based on the support setting information. The MFP application 300 may correct a setting value not supported by the MFP 110 to a predetermined setting value executable by the MFP 110, or dynamically generate a setting value executable by the MFP 110 and convert the unsupported setting value to the relevant setting value. You may correct|amend to the produced|generated setting value.

For example, when a job specifying the document size as A3 is submitted to the MFP 110 that can print only document sizes of A4 or smaller, the MFP application 300 determines that the document size is an error. When this error is detected, the MFP application 300 changes the document size included in the job settings to A4. The above determination is applied not only to the document size, but also to determination of other setting values such as stapling and double-sided printing. As a result, the unified correction is executed without depending on the model of the MFP 110 or configuration information unique to each MFP 110 . After S608, the process proceeds to step S609.

Next, in S<b>609 , the MFP application 300 inputs the setting values of the selected job as a job to the connected MFP 110 . If this setting value has been corrected in S608, the MFP application 300 submits a job having the corrected setting value.

According to the information processing apparatus (mobile terminal 100 ) of the present embodiment, the mobile terminal 100 can correct setting values that are not supported by the MFP 110 and input them to the MFP 110 . Therefore, the behavior at the time of job input does not depend on the MFP 110, and unified control can be performed by the mobile terminal 100, so usability is improved when the user uses a plurality of multifunction peripherals. Here, after the job execution instruction is given in S605, the set values are automatically corrected in S608. Without being limited to this, the setting values may be automatically corrected before the job execution instruction is given in S605. For example, when displaying the job setting confirmation screen 860, the setting values of the corresponding setting items may be automatically corrected, and the job setting confirmation screen 860 after automatic correction may be displayed. In this case, the support setting information of the MFP 110 is obtained before the job setting confirmation screen 860 is displayed.

Correction rules for job setting values may be provided in the MFP application 300 in advance, and the setting values may be corrected according to the correction rules. For example, the MFP application 300 corrects setting values that cannot be executed by the MFP 110 to preset setting values according to the correction rule. As an example, when an error in document size is detected, the MFP application 300 uniformly sets the document size to A4. Further, when a color selection error is detected, the MFP application 300 uniformly sets the color selection setting to "automatic". As a result, when a job is submitted from the MFP application 300, even if a setting value that causes an error is included, the same correction can be performed each time. A user may be allowed to preset a correction rule for the setting value.

(Example 2)
The information processing apparatus of the first embodiment automatically corrects the job setting information to the setting information that can be executed by the MFP 110 when the setting information of the job to be input to the MFP 110 includes the setting information not supported by the MFP 110 . However, if a job is submitted without notifying the user that the job setting information has been automatically corrected, the execution result of the job may be different from what the user expected, which may confuse the user. Also, if there is setting information not supported by the MFP 110, the user may want to reset the setting information. An information processing apparatus according to a second embodiment, which will be described below, notifies post-correction setting information when automatically correcting job setting information. Further, the information processing apparatus issues an error notification when a setting for automatically correcting setting information not supported by the MFP 110 by the MFP application 300 (hereinafter referred to as "automatic correction setting") is OFF. ON/OFF of the automatic correction setting indicates whether or not the MFP application 300 automatically corrects setting information not supported by the MFP 110 .

FIG. 7 is a flowchart for explaining operation processing of an MFP application possessed by a mobile terminal according to the second embodiment.
S701 to S707 in FIG. 7 are the same as S601 to S607 in FIG. If it is determined in S707 that the MFP 110 does not support the job setting values, the process advances to S708. Next, the MFP application 300 determines whether the automatic correction setting is on. If the automatic correction setting is off, the process advances to S711. If the automatic correction setting is ON, the process advances to S709. Regarding the automatic correction setting, ON/OFF may be set individually for each job button 851 (for each job type), or ON/OFF may be set collectively.

In S709, the same processing as S608 in FIG. 6 is executed. That is, the MFP application 300 automatically corrects the setting values of the job that are not supported by the MFP 110 . Subsequently, in S710, the MFP application 300 notifies the user of the content of correction of the set value in S709. The MFP application 300 may display the correction details of the setting values on a predetermined UI. For example, the content of setting value correction is displayed using a pop-up, dialog, toast, or the like. Further, the MFP application 300 may emphasize the setting items related to the corrected setting values and display them on the screen. After the process of S710, the process proceeds to S712. S712 is the same as S609 in FIG.

Also, in S711, the MFP application 300 notifies an error regarding job settings. As a result, the notified error is displayed, for example, on the screen of the mobile terminal 100 . If an error related to job setting is notified, the job is not submitted to the MFP from the mobile terminal 100, and the process ends.

According to the information processing apparatus of the second embodiment, if the setting values of a job include setting values that are not supported by the MFP 110, an error is notified to the user or the automatically corrected setting values are notified. User convenience can be improved. The embodiments described above are not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention. Also, the features described in each embodiment may be appropriately combined and applied. For example, the process of S710 of FIG. 7 (the process of notifying the set value after correction) may be executed after the process of S608 of FIG. 6, which is the operation process of the first embodiment.
