ABSTRACT:
A multiprocessor unit (11) for a printer system. The multiprocessor unit (11) is comprised of a master processor (21) and multiple parallel processors (22). The processing unit (11) interprets a page description program or some other graphics programming. A master processor (21) selects certain interpretation tasks that are to be executed as "cofunctions" and queues these tasks. Cofunctions of the same type are placed in the same queue (30). Parallel processors (22) access the queues and execute the cofunctions.
