<p>A page printing system in which high level encoded page layout information is processed to form a printed page. An image processor (3) operates to form page image data, at a variable rate, during a processing time. A window buffer (16-2) is filled at the rate at which the image processor processes (3) the page layout information. The rate at which the window buffer (16-2) is emptied, to supply page image data to a printing device (4), is determined by the rate of printing of the printing device (4). The printer (4), operating at a preestablished printing rate, prints the printed page during a printing time. The variable rate of the image processor (3) is determined such that the duration of the processing time does not exceed the duration of the printing time.</p> |
