Document management system, document management device, and non-transitory computer readable medium for computing a number of other users who have printed a document

1. A document management system comprising:

a processor configured to

receive print data of a document to be printed, the print data being transmitted from a first user,

transmit, to another user belonging to a predetermined group, document specification information that specifies the document when a request to print the document is received from the other user, and

compute a number of other users who have printed the document on a basis of the document specification information and user specification information that specifies another user, the information being transmitted from a printing device when the other user uses the printing device to print the document on a basis of the document specification information.

2. The document management system according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor is configured to transmit the user specification information together with the document specification information to the other user.

3. The document management system according to claim 2 , wherein

the processor is configured to create in advance the document specification information and the user specification information to transmit to the other user when the print data is received from the first user.

4. The document management system according to claim 2 , wherein

the processor is configured to transmit a notification of information related to the printing of the document to another user who no longer belongs to the group.

5. The document management system according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor is configured to transmit print settings information about settings to be used to print the document that have been set by the other user, together with the document specification information and the user specification information, to the other user.

6. The document management system according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor is configured to acquire the user specification information after the other user prints the document using the printing device.

7. The document management system according to claim 6 , wherein

the processor is configured to treat an electronic money account used by the other user as the user specification information.

8. The document management system according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor is configured to notify the first user with information related to the number of other users who have printed the document.

9. The document management system according to claim 8 , wherein

when all of the other users who belong to the group have printed the document, the processor is configured to transmit a print completion notification indicating that printing is complete to the first user, on a basis of the number of other users who have printed the document.

10. The document management system according to claim 9 , wherein

the processor is configured to transmit the print completion notification while also accounting for an increase or decrease in the number of other users belonging to the group.

11. The document management system according to claim 1 , wherein

when a time limit on printing the document is set, the processor is configured to transmit a reminder notification reminding another user who has not printed to print the document according to the time limit.

12. The document management system according to claim 11 , wherein

the processor is configured to

receive a request to extend the time limit from another user, and

extend the time limit when the extension of the time limit is approved.

13. The document management system according to claim 11 , wherein

the processor is configured to

when transmitting the reminder notification, transmit a removal notification indicating that the document will be removed according to the time limit, and

not remove the document when a request to negate the removal of the document is received.

14. A document management device comprising:

a processor configured to

save print data of a document to be printed, the print data being transmitted from a first user,

generate document specification information that specifies the document when a request to print the document is received from another user belonging to a predetermined group, and

compute a number of other users who have printed the document on a basis of the document specification information and user specification information that specifies another user, the information being transmitted from a printing device when the other user uses the printing device to print the document on a basis of the document specification information.

15. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for managing a document, the process comprising:

receiving print data of a document to be printed, the print data being transmitted from a first user;

transmitting, to another user belonging to a predetermined group, document specification information that specifies the document when a request to print the document is received from the other user; and

computing a number of other users who have printed the document on a basis of the document specification information and user specification information that specifies another user, the information being transmitted from a printing device when the other user uses the printing device to print the document on a basis of the document specification information.
