Abstract

An information processing system includes a processor that manages time slots in which a roll paper has been consumed for printing or time slots in which the roll paper is scheduled to be consumed for printing and controls output of a first image in which figures corresponding to the time slots are arranged for an attribute of the paper along a time axis.

Claims (27)

1. An information processing system comprising:

a processor that

manages time slots in which a roll paper has been consumed for printing and time slots in which the roll paper is scheduled to be consumed for printing, and

controls output of a first image and a second image in both of which figures corresponding to the time slots are arranged according to an attribute of the roll paper along a first axis and time along a second axis, wherein

position of the time slots along the second axis indicates whether the roll paper has been consumed for printing or the roll paper is scheduled to be consumed for printing,

the first image represents only print jobs that are scheduled to be completed, and

the second image represents only print jobs that have been executed.

2. The information processing system according to claim 1 , wherein

when one of the time slots managed for an attribute of paper is selected by a user, the processor arranges, in the first image, time slots in which the print job linked to the selected time slot has been executed or time slots in which the print job is scheduled to be executed for printing.

3. The information processing system according to claim 2 , wherein

the processor performs switching as to whether or not to arrange, in the first image, the figures corresponding to the time slots in which the print job has been executed or the time slots in which the print job is scheduled to be executed, through receiving an operation of a handler associated with the print job linked to the selected time slot.

4. The information processing system according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor sequentially shifts the time slots that are located in an instructed direction to a specific position in the first image when an operation instructing shifting to a point of time at which the roll paper is to be replaced is detected.

5. The information processing system according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor manages the attribute of paper in association with start and end points of the time slot for each roll paper.

6. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute an information processing process comprising:

managing time slots in which a roll paper has been consumed for printing and time slots in which the roll paper is scheduled to be consumed for printing; and

controlling output of a first image and a second image in both of which figures corresponding to the time slots are arranged according to an attribute of the roll paper along a first axis and time along a second axis, wherein

position of the time slots along the second axis indicates whether the roll paper has been consumed for printing or the roll paper is scheduled to be consumed for printing,

the first image represents only print jobs that are scheduled to be completed, and

the second image represents only print jobs that have been executed.

7. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute an information processing process comprising:

managing print schedule in which information on print jobs and information on paper to be used for the print jobs are given; and

outputting first image information and second image information both corresponding to the print job by displaying figures corresponding to time slots arranged according to an attribute of the paper along a first axis and time along a second axis, wherein

position of the time slots along the second axis indicates whether the paper has been consumed for printing or the paper is scheduled to be consumed for printing,

the first image information represents the print jobs as scheduled to be completed, and

the second image information represents the print jobs as executed.
