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 17):
The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing the printer driver program according to  claim 16 , wherein\n the operating system program defines a process of setting one of a changing mode and a maintaining mode as a mode, and the changing process, in the case where the execution device different from the default device is designated among the image forming apparatuses by the application task and printing is executed, defines a process of setting the execution device as the default device in the changing mode, and a process of not setting the execution device as the default device in the maintaining mode, and the printer driver program allows the hardware processor to execute: a mode detection step of detecting the mode; and the maintaining step includes a step of, in the case where the detected mode is the changing mode, changing the mode from the changing mode to the maintaining mode before the control target device is allowed to execute printing in the print control step.
