Summary:To provide an information processing apparatus configured to organize deliveries, thereby improving delivery efficiency, a control method of the information processing apparatus, and a printer driver.SOLUTION: An information processing apparatus of a system configured by connecting an image forming apparatus which outputs a printed matter based on a print job received from the information processing apparatus and an automated delivery apparatus which receives the printed matter from the image forming apparatus and delivers the printed matter to the information processing apparatus which has transmitted the print job, includes: storage means which stores a delivery job; setting means which sets, when a print job for delivery is not stored in the storage means, a delivery time which is the time a predetermined time after storing the print job to be delivered to the image forming apparatus, and sets, when the print job for delivery has been stored in the storage means, a delivery time of the stored job for delivery, as a delivery time of the print job to be delivered; and transmission means which transmits, when the delivery time comes, all print jobs stored in the storage means to the image forming apparatus together with user information.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 9A 【課題】配送をまとめ、配送効率を向上させる情報処理装置その制御方法及びプリンタドライバを提供する。【解決手段】情報処理装置から受信した印刷ジョブに基づき印刷物を出力する画像形成装置と、印刷物を画像形成装置から受け取り印刷ジョブを送信した情報処理装置まで配送する自動配送装置がネットワークで接続されたシステムの情報処理装置であって、配送ジョブを格納する格納手段、格納手段に配送する印刷ジョブが格納されていない場合は、画像形成装置へ配送する印刷ジョブが格納された時刻から所定時間が経過した時刻を配送時刻として設定し、格納手段に配送する印刷ジョブがすでに格納されている場合は、格納されている配送するジョブの配送時刻を配送する印刷ジョブの配送時刻として設定する設定手段と、配送時刻になった際、格納手段に格納されている全ての配送する印刷ジョブをユーザ情報とともに画像形成装置へ送信する送信手段と、を有する。【選択図】図９Ａ
