<p>A form for printing print data, such as business data generated by an application program (101) is generated by a form defining program (104). The form defining program (104) designates a specific item (specific data item) in the form based on the predesignated print color of the form. A data discriminating section (106) extracts data in a specific data item from the print data supplied from the application program (101). In accordance with the contents of the data in the specific data item, a color control command for changing the predesignated color of the form is generated. A printer controller (107) change the color of the form in accordance with the color control command, supplied via a printer driver (103), and outputs the resultant data to a printing section. The printing section (108) prints the print data in the color-changed form. <IMAGE></p> |
