<p>An image printing system, and a printing method according to the selection of either whole printing or partitioned printing, are provided. The image printing system includes a printer driver (15a) installed in a computer (10), for providing a print option menu on a screen of a display device (18) to allow a user to select either whole printing or partitioned printing on a print object manuscript file to be printed, and outputting the selected result information to a printer (30) together with a print data file transformed into a printer language with respect to the manuscript file, and a printer controller (31) installed in the printer (30), for reading data transmitted from the computer (10) via a communications interface (20) and determining a print sequence by a printer engine (32) so that the total pages of a print data file selected to be printed by partitioned printing are divided and printed in segments at intervals of a set period in units of a determined number of pages. In the image printing system and the printing method according to the selection of partitioned printing, non-urgent print object files can be printed by partitioned printing. Thus, printer use time between users can be adjusted. <IMAGE></p> |
