Abstract

A printing system, including a static elimination apparatus configured to change a setting of static elimination processing, includes at least one processor and at least one memory that is in communication with the at least one processor. The at least one memory stores instructions for causing the at least one processor and the at least one memory to acquire a type of a sheet to be used in printing processing, acquire a printing environment, acquire a rough indication value for a charge adjustment value for a static elimination corresponding to the type of the sheet and the printing environment, and control a display unit to perform display of the rough indication value for the charge adjustment value for the static elimination and to perform display to give an instruction for continuation of the printing processing.

Claims (26)

1 . A printing system including a static elimination apparatus configured to change a setting of static elimination processing, the printing system comprising:

at least one processor; and

at least one memory that is in communication with the at least one processor,

wherein the at least one memory stores instructions for causing the at least one processor and the at least one memory to:

acquire a type of a sheet to be used in printing processing;

acquire a printing environment;

acquire a rough indication value for a charge adjustment value for a static elimination corresponding to the type of the sheet and the printing environment; and

control a display unit to perform display of the rough indication value for the charge adjustment value for the static elimination and to perform display to give an instruction for continuation of the printing processing.

2 . The printing system according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one memory further stores instructions for causing the at least one processor and the at least one memory to acquire the printing environment based on a temperature and a humidity detected by a sensor.

3 . The printing system according to claim 2 ,

wherein the printing environment is divided into a plurality of sections on an environment table based on temperatures and humidities, and

wherein the at least one memory further stores instructions for causing the at least one processor and the at least one memory to collate the temperature and the humidity detected by the sensor with the environment table to acquire the printing environment.

4 . The printing system according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one memory further stores instructions for causing the at least one processor and the at least one memory to wait to perform the printing processing until an operation on the display of giving the instruction for continuation of the printing processing is performed.

5 . The printing system according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one memory further stores instructions for causing the at least one processor and the at least one memory to:

acquire a setting value, and

in a case where the setting value is within a range of the rough indication value for the charge adjustment value for the static elimination, control the display unit not to perform the display.

6 . A method of controlling a printing system including a static elimination apparatus configured to change a setting of static elimination processing, the method comprising:

performing first acquisition to acquire a type of a sheet to be used in printing processing;

performing second acquisition to acquire a printing environment;

performing third acquisition to acquire a rough indication value for a charge adjustment value for a static elimination corresponding to the type of the sheet and the printing environment; and

controlling a display unit to perform display of the rough indication value for the charge adjustment value for the static elimination and to perform display to give an instruction for continuation of the printing processing.

7 . A computer-readable storage medium that stores computer-executable instructions for causing a computer to execute a method of controlling a printing system including a static elimination apparatus configured to change a setting of static elimination processing, the method comprising:

performing first acquisition to acquire a type of a sheet to be used in printing processing;

performing second acquisition to acquire a printing environment;

performing third acquisition to acquire a rough indication value for a charge adjustment value for a static elimination corresponding to the type of the sheet and the printing environment; and

controlling a display unit to perform display of the rough indication value for the charge adjustment value for the static elimination and to perform display to give an instruction for continuation of the printing processing.
