ABSTRACT:
A printing system operates multiple different printing pipeline stages that together convert raster formatted print data or image formatted print data into a printer swath. The raster formatted print data or image formatted print data is received at the different printing pipeline stages according to the print data's level of rasterization. This allows the rasterization stages that have already been performed on the print data to be skipped. In another aspect of the printing system, the controller identifies job or page settings in the raster or image print data and uses the identified job setting in the different pipeline stages to rasterize the print data.
