Patent ID: 7864955

Claim:
A print system comprising: an information processing apparatus that has an encryption function of encrypting print data, and issues a print job for the print data encrypted by the encryption function; an output processing apparatus that receives the issued print job, and has a decryption function of decrypting the encrypted print data of the received print job; and an output apparatus that has a storage function of storing the print data not encrypted by the encryption function, and outputs the stored print data, wherein the information processing apparatus comprises: a designating unit configured to permit a user to designate use of the encryption function and use of the storage function for the print job; a first detecting unit that detects whether or not the use of the encryption function for the print job is designated; a second detecting unit that detects whether or not the use of the storage function for the print job is designated; and a restricting unit configured to restrict from issuing, from the information processing apparatus to the output processing apparatus, the print job when the first detecting unit and the second detecting unit detect that both the use of the encryption function for the print job and the use of the storage function for the print job are designated by the designating unit.
