Abstract

A system includes a storage unit, a display control unit, and an output unit. The storage unit stores label information used for book management, the label information being obtained on the basis of information for specifying a publication. The display control unit causes a display unit to display a screen for receiving a user operation conducted after the label information is obtained but before a label image expressing the label information is formed on a medium. The output unit responds to an instruction based on the user operation received while the screen is displayed, and outputs data for forming the label image on a medium.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A system comprising:
a storage unit that stores label information used for book management, the label information being obtained on the basis of information for specifying a publication; a display control unit that causes a display unit to display a screen for receiving a user operation conducted after the label information is obtained but before a label image expressing the label information is formed on a medium; and an output unit that responds to an instruction based on the user operation received while the screen is displayed, and outputs data for forming the label image on a medium.

2 . The system according to claim 1 , wherein
the label information includes category information expressing a book category conforming to rules used for the book management, the display control unit causes display of the screen for receiving a first operation of correcting the obtained category information as the user operation, and the storage unit stores the category information corrected by the first operation as the label information.

3 . The system according to claim 1 , wherein
when output of at least one instance of the data is available, the display control unit causes display of the screen for receiving a second operation of giving an instruction to start formation of the label image on a medium as the user operation, and when the second operation is performed, the output unit outputs the data for forming the label image not yet formed on a medium.

4 . The system according to claim 2 , wherein
when output of at least one instance of the data is available, the display control unit causes display of the screen for receiving a second operation of giving an instruction to start formation of the label image on a medium as the user operation, and when the second operation is performed, the output unit outputs the data for forming the label image not yet formed on a medium.

5 . The system according to claim 3 , wherein
when a number of the label image not yet formed on a medium exceeds a threshold, the output unit outputs the data even if the second operation is not performed.

6 . The system according to claim 4 , wherein
when a number of the label image not yet formed on a medium exceeds a threshold, the output unit outputs the data even if the second operation is not performed.

7 . The system according to claim 5 , wherein
the display control unit causes display of a number of the label image not yet formed on a medium, or causes display of the number per type of the label image.

8 . The system according to claim 6 , wherein
the display control unit causes display of a number of the label image not yet formed on a medium, or causes display of the number per type of the label image.

9 . The system according to claim 5 , wherein
when an image forming unit that forms the label image is in a specific state, the output unit does not output the data even if a number of the label image not yet formed on a medium exceeds the threshold.

10 . The system according to claim 6 , wherein
when an image forming unit that forms the label image is in a specific state, the output unit does not output the data even if a number of the label image not yet formed on a medium exceeds the threshold.

11 . The system according to claim 7 , wherein
when an image forming unit that forms the label image is in a specific state, the output unit does not output the data even if a number of the label image not yet formed on a medium exceeds the threshold.

12 . The system according to claim 8 , wherein
when an image forming unit that forms the label image is in a specific state, the output unit does not output the data even if a number of the label image not yet formed on a medium exceeds the threshold.

13 . The system according to claim 3 , wherein
when a specific time occurs, the output unit outputs the data, even if the second operation is not performed.

14 . A method comprising:
storing label information used for book management, the label information being obtained on the basis of information for specifying a publication; causing a display unit to display a screen for receiving a user operation conducted after the label information is obtained but before a label image expressing the label information is formed on a medium; and responding to an instruction based on the user operation received while the screen is displayed, and outputting data for forming the label image on a medium.

15 . A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:
storing label information used for book management, the label information being obtained on the basis of information for specifying a publication; causing a display unit to display a screen for receiving a user operation conducted after the label information is obtained but before a label image expressing the label information is formed on a medium; and responding to an instruction based on the user operation received while the screen is displayed, and outputting data for forming the label image on a medium.
