Abstract:
In a printing method, a plurality of predefined print setting groups are stored by a printer. A client device sends a print job to the printer. For the print job, the printer receives user-specified print settings that can be set with a graphic user interface on the client device. The printer also receives a shortcut ID, which the printer associates with one of the predefined print setting groups. The print job is completed using a merged group of settings derived from the user-specified and predefined settings. Advantageously, the predefined settings may be of a type that a user cannot set from the client device, as might be the case when the client device is physically small with a minimal graphic user interface. This can allow the user to access more sophisticated features of the printer. However, conflicts may arise between the user-specified and predefined settings. The printer resolves conflicts by giving priority to user-specified settings or predefined settings.

Claim (Index 7):
A printer comprising a processor and a memory storing a print software program, the processor executing instructions in the print software program to perform a printing process comprising:\n storing, by the printer, a plurality of predefined print setting groups; receiving, by the printer from a client device, a user-specified shortcut ID for a print job; associating, by the printer, the received user-specified shortcut ID to a designated group among the plurality of predefined print setting groups, the designated group comprising a first predefined print setting and a second predefined print setting, the first predefined print setting being a value for a first print setting type, the second predefined print setting being a value for a second print setting type; receiving, by the printer from the client device, a user-specified print setting as another value for the first print setting type that is different from and conflicts with the first predefined print setting for the first print setting type and that does not conflict with the second predefined print setting for the second print setting type; and executing, by the printer, the print job by using the user-specified print setting for the first print setting type and the second predefined print setting for the second print setting type.
