INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD AND PROGRAM WHICH CALCULATES OPTIMAL DRIVER SETTINGS WITH EVOLUTIONAL APPROACH

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an information processing apparatus which allows an image forming apparatus to carry out optimal printing.;SOLUTION: A job setting information acquiring unit 100 acquires job setting information 300. A driver setting acquiring unit 110 acquires driver settings 210 used when a job 200 is output. An output time predicting unit 120 calculates a predicted output time 220 based on the job setting information 300 and the driver settings 210. An optimal setting calculating unit 130 calculates an optimal driver settings 250 which allows an output for a shorter time as compared with the predicted output time 220 with reference to the job setting information 300. A job output unit 140 outputs a job 200 to an image forming apparatus with the calculated optimal driver settings 250.;SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2;COPYRIGHT: (C)2019,JPO&INPIT
