Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Whether a continuous sheet usable for printing on the basis of first print data and a continuous sheet usable for printing on the basis of second print data are the same or not is determined. If it is determined that they are the same, an image based on the first print data and an image based on the second print data are printed continuously on a continuous sheet. When an image based on the second print data is arranged at an end of a continuous sheet, the second print data is assigned to the beginning of print data to be printed on another continuous sheet.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A print control apparatus capable of causing a printing unit to print on a continuous sheet, the apparatus comprising: a generating unit configured to generate print data to be printed on a continuous sheet; and a print control unit configured to cause the printing unit to print an image based on the print data generated by the generating unit on the continuous sheet, wherein the generating unit generates first print data to be printed on a first continu…
