Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A printing apparatus includes (a) a pass-over processing section for managing print processing order of the jobs, and for controlling the image forming section such that a shortage job is skipped and the print processing is carried out with respect to each of succeeding jobs coming after the shortage job in the print processing order, the shortage job being a job which is so judged by the device condition managing section as to cause a shortage of the source; and (b) a proximate job judgment section for judging whether or not the shortage job and a proximate job need to be consecutively print-processed, by comparing (i) job information included in the shortage job with (ii) job information of the proximate job. In cases where the proximate job judgment section judges that the shortage job and the proximate job need to be sequentially print-processed, the pass-over processing section controls the image forming section such that the shortage job, judged to be print-processed in continuity with the proximate job, is not skipped for print processing with respect to the succeeding jobs coming after the shortage job, until completion of the print processing of the shortage job.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A printing apparatus, comprising: a job processing section for carrying out print processing resulting in forming an image with respect to received print jobs; a detecting section for detecting whether or not there is a source required for the print processing of each of the print jobs; a job control section for managing print processing order of the print jobs, and for controlling the job processing section such that a shortage print job is skipped and…
