Abstract
A printing management device includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to receive a printing output request from a terminal. The printing output request requests to print output data without specifying a printer to be used. The processor is configured to transmit the printing output request to a specific printer in association with a time-related deletion condition to cause the specific printer to delete the printing output request from a first memory of the specific printer when a time period set in the time-related deletion condition is exceeded. The processor is configured to retransmit the printing output request to the specific printer when a retransmission request for requesting retransmission of the printing output request is received from the specific printer.
