Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A printing system includes an information processing apparatus including first circuitry and an image forming apparatus. The first circuitry is configured to receive designation of superimposing an image of a particular color on a print target image, associate the image of the particular color with the print target image in response to a reception of the designation of superimposing, and transmit print data including the print target image and the image of the particular color to the image forming apparatus. The image forming apparatus includes second circuitry configured to receive the print data and interpret the print data, and a printer engine configured to superimpose the image of the particular color on the print target image in printing, according to interpretation of the print data.
