摘要

An information processing system includes a processor configured to dynamically change an estimation of a time needed to execute each print job in accordance with variations in a combination of print jobs allocated to one roll of rolled paper.

說明書

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is based on and claims priority under 35 USC 119 from Japanese Patent Application No. 2019-155010 filed Aug. 27, 2019.

BACKGROUND (i) Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to an information processing system and a non-transitory computer readable medium.

(ii) Related Art

An image forming apparatus (hereinafter referred to also as a “continuous feed printer”) that forms an image on rolled paper keeps a speed (hereinafter referred to as a “transport speed”) at which the rolled paper is transported constant in order to suppress degradation in the image quality. The upper limit of the transport speed is determined in accordance with the limit of the transport capability of the continuous feed printer and the speed at which a print job is rasterized.

An example of the related art is Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2017-177363.

SUMMARY

In the continuous feed printer, a plurality of print jobs are allocated to one roll of rolled paper. Also in the case where a plurality of print jobs are to be printed, it is necessary to keep the transport speed constant until all printing is finished. In the case where a plurality of print jobs are allocated, the transport speed differs in accordance with the combination of the plurality of print jobs allocated to one roll of rolled paper. In other words, the time needed to execute each of a plurality of print jobs allocated to one roll of rolled paper is affected by other print jobs combined therewith.

What is claimed is:1. An information processing system comprising:a processor configured to add print jobs to be allocated to one roll of rolled paper, one print job at a time, in a range in which a remaining amount of the rolled paper is not exceeded; dynamically change an estimation of a time needed to execute each print job previously added for the one roll of rolled paper to reflect print parameters changed because of the added print jobs; and in a case where there are a plurality of candidates for an added print job, each including a transport speed that is higher than a transport speed determined for the combination of print jobs that have been allocated, determine to add one of the plurality of candidates with a transport speed that is the lowest of the plurality of candidates.2. The information processing system according to claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to:in a case where there are a plurality of candidates for an added print job, each including a transport speed that is lower than a transport speed determined for the combination of print jobs that have been allocated, determine to add, one of the plurality of candidates with a transport speed that is the highest of the plurality of candidates.3. The information processing system according to claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to: select a print job that uses a longest length of paper, among unallocated print jobs, as a first print job to be allocated to the rolled paper.4. The information processing system according to claim 2, wherein the processor is configured to:select a print job that uses a longest length of paper, among unallocated print jobs, as a first print job to be allocated to the rolled paper.5. The information processing system according to claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to:add print jobs to be allocated to the rolled paper, one print job at a time, in a descending order of speed needed to process the print jobs in the range in which the remaining amount of the rolled paper is not exceeded.6. The information processing system according to claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to:dynamically change the estimation of the time needed to execute each print job at a time when the print jobs allocated to the rolled paper is determined.7. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process comprising: adding print jobs to be allocated to one roll of rolled paper, one print job at a time, in a range in which a remaining amount of the rolled paper is not exceeded; dynamically changing an estimation of a time needed to execute each print job previously added for the one roll of rolled paper to reflect print parameters changed because of the added print jobs; and in a case where there are a plurality of candidates for an added print job, each including a transport speed that is higher than a transport speed determined for the combination of print jobs that have been allocated, adding one of the plurality of candidates with a transport speed that is the lowest of the plurality of candidates.8. An image forming system comprising: an image forming apparatus that forms an image on rolled paper; and an information processing system comprising means for adding print jobs to be allocated to one roll of rolled paper, one print job at a time, in a range in which a remaining amount of the rolled paper is not exceeded; means for dynamically changing an estimation of a time needed to execute each print job previously added for the one roll of rolled paper to reflect print parameters changed because of the added print jobs; and means for adding, in a case where there are a plurality of candidates for an added print job, each including a transport speed that is higher than a transport speed determined for the combination of print jobs that have been allocated, one of the plurality of candidates with a transport speed that is the lowest of the plurality of candidates.
