An information processing apparatus includes processing circuitry and a memory. The processing circuitry obtains device information from a printer. The processing circuitry obtains logical printer information regarding a logical printer, the logical printer being for printing to the printer from the information processing apparatus. The processing circuitry further determines whether to switch a print output destination of the logical printer based on the obtained device information and a compatible model of a printer driver corresponding to the logical printer, the compatible model of printer driver being obtained based on the printer logical printer information. When determining to switch the print output destination corresponding to the logical printer, the processing circuitry switches the print output destination of the logical printer to the printer.
