The paper parameters in the print job include paper feeding source, paper size, and the like, and the paper parameters set on each paper feeding cassette include set paper size and/or paper type, and the like.
S14, executing the print job according to the paper type in the set print job.
S15, the print job is executed directly according to the paper type in the print job.
Further, step S13 includes:
s131, determine whether there is a designated paper feed cassette in the print job? I.e., whether a paper feed source is designated in the print job? The paper feed source may be specified by a user, e.g., the user may specify a first paper feed cassette or other paper feed cassettes of the image forming apparatus as the paper feed source of the print job on a computer sending the print job.
If yes, go to step S132, and then go to step S144; if the determination result is negative, step S133 is performed.
S132, set the paper type set in the paper feed cassette designated in the print job as the paper type in the print job.
S133, determine whether the paper types set on all paper feed cassettes in the image forming apparatus match?
If yes, go to step S134, and then go to step S144; if the determination result is negative, step S135 is performed.
S134, the paper type set on one of the paper feed cassettes is set as the paper type in the print job.
S135, determine whether the paper size set on only one paper feed cassette among all paper feed cassettes of the image forming apparatus matches the paper size in the print job?
If yes, go to step S136, and then go to step S144; if the determination result is negative, step S137 is performed.
S136, the paper type set on the paper feed cassette whose paper size matches the paper size in the print job is set as the paper type in the print job.
S137, determine whether the paper sizes set in all paper feed cassettes in the image forming apparatus do not coincide with the paper size in the print job and the paper type set in none of the paper feed cassettes is automatically selected?
If yes, go to step S144; if the determination result is negative, step S138 is performed.
S138, determine whether there is only one paper feeding cassette in the matched paper feeding cassettes?
If yes, go to step S139, and then go to step S144; if the determination result is negative, step S140 is performed.
S139, the paper type set on the paper feed cassette with paper is set as the paper type in the print job.
S140, determine if there is no paper in all matched paper feeding cassettes in the image forming apparatus?
If yes, go to step S141, and then go to step S144; if the determination result is negative, step S142 is performed.
And S141, setting the paper type of the printing job according to the priority of each paper feeding cassette of the image forming device or the default paper type.
And S142, comparing the priorities of the paper feeding paper boxes which are matched and have paper in the image forming device.
In one example, the image forming apparatus includes a multi-function paper feed cassette, an automatic paper feed cassette, a first option cassette, and a second option cassette, wherein the priority of each paper feed cassette from high to low is: the paper feeding device comprises a multifunctional paper feeding paper box, an automatic paper feeding paper box, a first selective paper box and a second selective paper box. If only three paper feed cassettes of the automatic paper feed cassette, the first option cassette, and the second option cassette have paper and the paper sizes set for these paper feed cassettes all match the paper size of the print job, note that the matching cassette here includes a cassette whose paper size coincides with the paper size of the print job and a cassette whose paper size is set to be automatically selected, the paper type set on the automatic paper feed cassette with higher priority is set as the paper type in the print job. It is understood that in other embodiments, the image forming apparatus may include other paper feed cassettes.
Further, as a detailed example, when the user sets the paper type to automatic selection and the paper feed source to none, and sets the paper size to a4 when sending a print job, the image forming apparatus includes four paper cassettes of an automatic paper feed cassette, a first option paper cassette, a second option paper cassette, and a third option paper cassette. If it appears that none of the paper sizes set in the image forming apparatus by the four paper feed cassettes is a4 and none of the cassettes is set to automatic selection (the user is allowed to set the paper size for each cassette in the image forming apparatus body, and automatic selection can be set as well as a4, a 5); when the determination result of step S137 is no, the following 3 cases may occur: 1. all the paper sizes in the matched paper cassettes are a 4; 2. the sizes of the paper sheets set in the matched paper boxes are A4 and automatic selection; 3. all matched paper boxes are set to be automatically selected; in the present application, it is considered that setting the paper size to the automatically selected paper cassette matches any print job. Therefore, the paper type of the print job is set according to the priority of the matching paper cassette and whether there is paper in the case of the above-described 3.
If the determination result in step S138 is no, the process proceeds to step S140, where it is determined whether there is no paper in the matching paper cassette, and if yes, the process proceeds to step S141: the paper type of the print job may be set as the default plain paper, or may be set as the job type of the print job according to the paper type of the paper feeding cassette with the highest priority, so as to ensure that the paper type of the print job is no longer automatically selected, and the image forming apparatus can analyze the print job execution operation. If the determination result in step S140 is no, the process proceeds to steps S142 and S143.
And S143, setting the paper type set on the paper feeding paper box with the highest priority in the matched paper feeding paper boxes as the paper type in the printing job.
S144, determine again whether the paper type in the print job is automatically selected? This step is to determine whether the paper type in the print job has been changed after the previous step of S144 to ensure that the parameter setting of the paper type of the print job is no longer automatically selected in step S14.
If the determination result is yes, step S145 is performed, and if the determination result is no, step S14 is performed.
S145, the paper type in the printing job is set as plain paper.
Further, in the case where the paper type in the print job is automatically selected, when the user has designated a paper feed source, the image forming apparatus resets the paper type in the print job to the paper type set on the image forming apparatus body by the designated paper feed cassette, and if the paper type set on the image forming apparatus body by the designated paper feed cassette is automatically selected, sets the paper type of the print job to plain paper.
If the user does not specify the paper feeding source, whether the paper types set in all the paper feeding boxes in the image forming device are consistent or not is judged, if so, the paper type of the printing operation is reset to be the paper type set in the paper feeding boxes in the image forming device, and if the paper types set in all the paper feeding boxes are automatically selected, the paper type in the printing operation is set to be the common paper.
If the user does not specify the paper feeding source and the paper types set by the paper feeding box in the image forming device are not completely consistent, the paper types in the print job are reset by judging whether the paper size in the print job is consistent with the paper size set by the paper feeding box in the image forming device. When the paper size set by only one paper feeding box is consistent with the paper size in the printing operation, the paper type of the paper feeding box is set as the paper type of the printing operation, and if the paper type of the paper feeding box is automatically selected, the paper type of the printing operation is set as the common paper. When the paper sizes set by a plurality of paper feeding boxes are consistent with the paper size in the printing operation or the paper sizes of the paper feeding boxes are automatically selected, whether the paper sizes are consistent or the paper sizes are set as the automatic paper feeding boxes or not is detected, if only one paper box has paper, the paper type set on the paper feeding box is set as the paper type in the printing operation, if the paper boxes have paper, the paper type set on the paper feeding box with the highest priority in the paper feeding boxes with paper is set as the paper type in the printing operation, and if the paper type set on the paper feeding box with the highest priority in the paper feeding boxes with paper is automatically selected, the paper type in the printing operation is set as the common paper; if no matched paper feeding paper box has paper, the paper type of the print job can be set as default plain paper, or the paper type of the paper feeding paper box with the highest priority can be directly selected from the matched paper feeding paper boxes to be used as the paper type of the print job, so that the paper type of the print job is not automatically selected any more, and the image forming device can analyze the print job to execute the operation. According to the method and the device, after the printing operation is received, the image forming device can exhaust various methods to enable the paper type of the printing operation not to be selected automatically any more, the image forming device can execute the printing operation according to the actual situation of the body paper box, the printing quality can be guaranteed, and the final execution of the printing operation can also be guaranteed.
In addition, the embodiment of the present application may be further modified to execute a printing control method, which basically has the flow steps as shown in fig. 2, except that steps S133 and S134 are omitted, and when the paper type in the print job is automatically selected and no paper feeding source is specified, the method proceeds to step S135 if the determination result at S131 is no after steps S11-S12 and S131 are executed. In the present embodiment, when it is determined that the paper type in the print job is automatically selected and no paper feed source is specified, the paper type of the print job is set according to the paper size in the print job and the paper size of a paper feed cassette in the image forming apparatus, whether or not there is paper, and the priority of the paper feed cassette; the print job is executed according to the paper type in the set print job. The embodiment can solve the problem that the image forming apparatus cannot execute the print job due to lack of parameter setting of the paper type when the print job does not specify the paper type in the background art, and further can change the paper type of the print job according to various parameters of a paper feeding box in the image forming apparatus body so that the paper type of the print job is not automatically selected any more, so that the print engine can adjust engine parameters such as fixing, transferring, developing and the like according to the determined paper type to execute the print job.
