Abstract:
1. An information processing apparatus comprising: an acquisition unit configured to acquire a printer driver support function from a storage unit, and capability information corresponding to a print device selected on a print device selection screen, wherein, in a case that a connection between the information processing apparatus and the print device cannot be established and the capability corresponding to the print device cannot be acquired by the acquisition unit, the acquisition unit acquires a print setting included in a preset support function stored in a predetermined storage unit of the information processing apparatus in advance; a generation unit configured to generate display target print setting information by adding a print medium information included in the capability information, that is information regarding a difference between the printer driver support function acquired by the acquisition unit and the capability information, to the printer driver support function, wherein, in a case that the print setting included in the preset support function is acquired by the acquisition unit, the generation unit substitutes the printer driver support function into the preset support function and generates the display target print setting information from the substituted printer driver support function; a display unit configured to display the display target print setting information on which, in addition to a print setting information included in the printer driver support function, a print setting generated by the generation unit is displayed in a selective manner; a control unit configured to control the print device to generate a first print data in a case that a print medium set via the display target print setting information displayed by the display unit is a print setting to be transmitted, and to generate a second print data and transmit the generated print data in a case that the print medium is a print setting to be applied.
