PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To judge whether or not the amount of data which should be outputted to a printer is proper at proper time by acquiring the memory capacity of a printer on the side of the information processor, judging whether or not the data which should be outputted to the printer can be processed by the printer, and reporting the judgement result. SOLUTION: Before the data which should be outputted to the printer are outputted, an acquiring means (performing an acquiring process by executing a program recorded in an ROM 2 or RAM 3 or on a hard disk 11, a floppy disk 12, etc., by a CPU 1) acquires the memory capacity of the printer 1500 connected through a bidirectional interface 13. After the acquisition, a recognizing means (performing a recognizing process by allowing the CPU 1 to execute a program recorded in the ROM 2 or RAM 3 or on the hard disk 11, floppy disk 12, etc.), recognizes the acquired capacity. According to the recognition result, whether or not the data which should be outputted to the printer 1500 can be printed is judged while the judgement reference is changed, and the judgement result is reported. |
