<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To efficiently utilize a nonvolatile memory while the speed of image formation is maintained. <P>SOLUTION: At the time of turning on a power supply, first font data stored in the nonvolatile memory is extended to generate second font data (S101). The second font data is temporarily stored in a RAM. When a character code is received, the second font data in the RAM is extended (S104) and image data is generated (S105). Then, when a control code is received, the image formation is carried out on the basis of the image data (S107). <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI |
