Image output processing apparatus

摘要

During warming up such as carried out upon power application, a first or second condition managing section monitors the status of an always changing device such as an image station and a fixing device, and based upon the current status of the device and the features of data for print jobs that have been received, a control section determines the order of the jobs to be printed out and carries out the corresponding output. Therefore, it is possible to efficiently output images without delay in handling image data even during warming up upon power application. <IMAGE>
