Sounding a buzzer a plurality of times can be controlled with few commands, the processor load is reduced when sounding the buzzer, and the buzzer can be sounded at the desired timing. A printer (1) having a buzzer (40) receives print data containing four types of data, a print configuration command (A), a buzzer configuration command (B), a printing control command (C), and a stop printing command (D), from a host device (2). The buzzer configuration command B is a command that sets the conditions and method of sounding the buzzer (40). The buzzer configuration command (B) sets the new page command (C2) as the command that triggers sounding the buzzer (40) from among commands and data contained in the printing control command. When the control unit (10) of the printer (1) detects the new page command (C2) while executing a print job, the control unit (10) causes the buzzer (40) to sound at the specified timing in the new page process. |
