CONTROL DEVICE AND CONTROL SYSTEM

摘要

Complicating programs installed on a control device, and wasting recording media, are suppressed. A registration device driver that generates and outputs control commands instructing registering a static image in an inkjet printer based on input of information related to a static image from an application AP, and a device control driver that generates and outputs a control command to print the static image registered in the inkjet printer superimposed with the variable image based on input of information related to the variable image from an application, are installed on a host computer. An application calls the device driver appropriate to the process.

主权项

1. A control device connected to a printing device capable of repeatedly printing an image on recording media, wherein:
the image includes a variable image that can be changed in each repeatedly printed image, and a static image that is the same in each repeatedly printed image, and the control device comprises: a registration device driver execution unit that runs a registration device driver with the ability to instruct registering the static image on the printing device; and a device control driver execution unit that runs a device control driver with the ability to instruct printing the variable image superimposed with the static image registered in the printing device; the registration device driver execution unit generating and outputting to the printing device a control command instructing registering the static image based on input of information related to the static image, and the device control driver execution unit generating and outputting to the printing device a control command instructing printing the variable image superimposed with the static image registered in the printing device based on input of information related to the variable image.
