Abstract:
A control device that executes an operating system program includes a hardware processor, wherein the operating system program defines a process of setting one image forming apparatus among a plurality of image forming apparatuses as a default device, and a changing process, in the case where an execution device different from the default device is designated from among the plurality of image forming apparatuses by an application task for executing an application program and printing is performed by the execution device, setting the execution device as the default device, and the hardware processor allows one control target device among the plurality of image forming apparatuses to perform printing in response to an instruction for printing given by the application task, and maintains the same image forming apparatus as the default device before and after printing is performed by the control target device.

Claim (Index 19):
The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing the printer driver program according to  claim 16 , wherein\n the changing process defined by the operating system program includes: an acquiring process of, in the case where an execution device is designated from among the image forming apparatuses by the application task, acquiring device identification information for identifying the execution device; and a process of, in the case where the execution device specified by the acquired device identification information is different from the default device, setting the execution device as the default device, the printer driver program allows the hardware processor to execute an identification information acquiring step of acquiring device identification information of the default device before the control target device is allowed to execute printing in the print control step, and the maintaining step includes a step of, in the case where a default device specified by the acquired device identification information is different from the control target device, in response to an instruction for printing by the control target device given by the application task, allowing a task for executing the operating system program to acquire device identification information of the default device instead of device identification information of the control target device in the acquiring process defined by the operating system program.
