PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image formation apparatus which improves the parallel processing efficiency by a plurality of drawing processing parts.SOLUTION: An image formation apparatus includes a plurality of drawing processing parts which refer to drawing data constituting partial regions of a single page as input data and generate image data obtained by combining processing results of drawing processing as output data. Each of the plurality of drawing processing parts holds the drawing position where the drawing processing part currently performs processing and detects the drawing position where the other drawing processing part currently performs processing. Control means detects the drawing position held by the other drawing processing part at the time of completion of drawing processing of the partial region currently processed, and changes allocation of the partial region being the next drawing processing object of the drawing processing part so that the time difference becomes small at the time of completion of drawing processing of the next partial region by the drawing processing part and the other drawing processing part.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 9 |
