<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming apparatus which saves the trouble of operation at the time of performing reprinting and has good usability. <P>SOLUTION: The printer is made to preserve in the printer raster data of a file subjected to direct printing when it performs direct printing for the file. Moreover, if a user desires a plurality of files (a file A and a file C in the example) as an object of direct printing, raster data of each of these files is collected in a job and registered in the printer while being prevented from registered separately as individual data. Therefore, in the case of reprinting the plurality of files another time, the plurality of files are printed at a time if the corresponding single job is designated and an indication of reprinting is given. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
