PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To freely structure print environments in which the use of an expansion device connected is easily determined by outputting the outline in the form of a draft of the expansion device. SOLUTION: If a control part 302 obtains resource information from a network board 103 which is connected to a printer main body 103 and performs a specified expansion process based on an inputted instruction to output resource information, the obtained resource information is analyzed by a command analysis part 305, then is developed as a draft image by a pattern developing part 306 based on the analysis results, and the developed draft image is printed by the printer main body 104. |
