Printing system, production system, and method of controlling production system
A production system includes a memory containing instructions, and a processor that executes the instructions to execute a quality verification process corresponding to identification information assigned to a print job, determine whether or not a condition corresponding to the identification information assigned to the print job is met, in a case it is determined that the condition is not met, execute an adjustment process for meeting the condition, and execute the print job in a case the adjustment process has been completed or in a case it is determined that the condition is met.
1. A printing system comprising an order receiving system, an information processing apparatus, and a production system,
wherein the order receiving system includes a memory containing instructions and a processor that executes the instructions to:
receive print data,
generate quality requirement data, and
transmit the print data and the quality requirement data to the information processing apparatus,
wherein the information processing apparatus includes a memory containing instructions and a processor that executes the instructions to:
receive the print data and the quality requirement data;
interpret the received quality requirement data;
based on a result of interpreting the received quality requirement data, transmit to the production system a print job for printing the print data and identification information of a quality verification process for verifying, with the production system, whether or not a quality required by the received quality requirement data is satisfied for the print job,
wherein the production system includes a memory containing instructions and a processor that executes the instructions to:
receive the transmitted print job and the transmitted identification information;
execute the quality verification process corresponding to the received identification information,
determine, after the quality verification process has been executed, whether or not a condition corresponding to the identification information is met,
execute, when it is determined that the condition is not met, an adjustment process for meeting the condition, and
execute the print job when the adjustment process has been completed or when it is determined that the condition is met.
2. The printing system according to claim 1 ,
wherein the adjustment process is an adjustment process corresponding to the identification information.
3. The printing system according to claim 1 ,
wherein the quality requirement data is PRX(Print Requirement eXchange format) data.
4. The printing system according to claim 1 ,
wherein the information processing apparatus executes instructions to register the identification information and the quality verification process with the production system.
5. The printing system according to claim 4 ,
wherein the production system stores information indicating adjustment capabilities of an apparatus included in the production system, and
the information processing apparatus executes instructions to decide the production system to be used on the basis of the information.
6. The printing system according to claim 1 ,
wherein the order receiving system executes instructions to receive the print data and a product type, and
wherein the order receiving unit executes instructions to generate the quality requirement data on the basis of the received product type.
7. The printing system according to claim 6 ,
wherein the order receiving system executes instructions to transmit the print data, the product type, and the quality requirement data to the information processing apparatus, and
the information processing apparatus executes instructions to decide the production system to be used on the basis of the product type and the quality requirement data received from the order receiving system.
