<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve a problem wherein the capacity to store data becomes enormous because the data volume of an image data handled in a computer is large, and that processing speed decreases because a processing must be conducted for this image data with large volume of data. <P>SOLUTION: The capacity of a spool file 25c1 can be reduced by implementing reduction processing of data volume such as thinning processing or the like before initial image data is stored in the spool file 25c1. Also, when a printer 27 is for monochrome and initial data is color image data, the data volume of the initial data is reduced by degrading the color image data of each picture element of this initial image data. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO |
