Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A first RIP processing unit reads cache data from a first cache unit. The first RIP processing unit transmits first RIP-processed variable part data to a printer. Since an identifier read by the first RIP processing unit is not a transmitted identifier, the first RIP processing unit transmits RIP-processed reuse part data to the printer. A second RIP processing unit reads cache data from a second cache unit. The second RIP processing unit transmits second RIP-processed variable part data to the printer. Since an identifier read by the second RIP processing unit is a transmitted identifier, the second RIP processing unit does not transmit the RIP-processed reuse part data to the printer.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A printing control apparatus for obtaining output data in a print output form from manuscript data expressed in a page description language and made up of a plurality of pages, and transmitting the output data to an external printer, the apparatus comprising: a plurality of output processing units for converting the manuscript data assigned to the output data and transmitting the output data to the printer; and a first storage unit for storing at least a r…
