<p>PURPOSE:To reduce the delay of a required time for printing by a method wherein printing data to be printed with the same magnification as that set in a printer is selected in preference to data with another printing magnification and printed by a printer and, thereafter, the another printing magnification is set to the printer, and the printing is transferred to a printing with the another printing magnification. CONSTITUTION:A printing data selection means 304 has a function of retrieving a printing magnification of printing data in a memory forming a spool file 303 and fetches printing data to be printed with the same magnification as that set in a printer 406 from the memory in preference to printing data with another magnification. A printing mode change means 305 has a function of judging whether or not printing data with a printing magnification unretrieved is present in the memory forming the spool file 303 and, according to the judged result, obtains the time when the printing data with a printing magnification unretrieved has not been present in the memory. At this time, the means 305 indicates a printer controller 405 to set any printing magnification of separately held printing data to the printer 406 to transfer the printing to a printing with a new printing magnification. In this manner, the delay of a required time for printing caused by changing a printing magnification in a printer can be reduced.</p> |
