Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A printing control apparatus includes a setting unit that sets a location of a delimitation in a print instruction, a buffer unit that buffers image data generated in response to the print instruction, and a transfer unit that transfers the image data buffered on the buffer unit to a printer that prints on a continuous-feed paper sheet. The transfer unit inserts blank sheet data at the location of the delimitation set by the setting unit when an amount of the image data buffered by the buffer unit becomes equal to or below a first threshold value and transfers the image data to the printer.
First claim
