ABSTRACT:
The technique of the present invention facilitates execution of proof printing, prior to main printing. In a printing system constructed via a network LAN, a printer PRT includes a job management apparatus that manages statuses of print jobs in conformity with International Standard ISO/IEC10175-1. The job management apparatus has a proofComplete control module6in addition to diverse functional blocks for processing the print jobs based on the International Standard. The proofComplete control module6functions to hold a print job with attribute information representing proof printing after conclusion of proof printing. Separate management of the print job with the proof printing attribute enables a single print job to be utilized for both proof printing and main printing. This arrangement effectively enhances the utility.
