<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To surely and promptly create a plurality of items of printed matter by highly accurately equalizing work allotment on printed matter creation apparatuses. <P>SOLUTION: A terminal 118 for operating a plurality of printed label creation apparatuses 1A-1C acquires a label length X, for each of a plurality of printed labels L, determined based on print data. A processing length Xt is calculated for each printed label L which is generated by adding, to the label length X, a cutting conversion distance Xc is obtained by converting a cutting time Tc required for one time of cutting operation by a cutting mechanism 15 into a conveyance distance at a predetermined velocity Vs during the lapse of the cutting time Tc. The plurality of printed label creation apparatuses 1A-1C to be subjected to distribute a plurality of label creation jobs are determined, the plurality of label creation jobs for creating the plurality of printed labels L are distributed and assigned to the plurality of printed label creation apparatuses 1A-1C, and a total of the processing lengths Xt of the printed labels L assigned for each of the printed label creation apparatuses 1 is made approximately equal to one another. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
