ABSTRACT:
In the printing apparatus which can carry a plurality kinds of operation modes, it can be determined whether an operation mode of the printing information sent from an external source is HP mode having control code or PS mode without control code. In such a printing apparatus, a simulation printing operation is carried out without printing using an operation mode P, which is a simulation mode of PS mode. As a result of the simulated printing, it is determined whether the printing information has a format that satisfies the format X of PS mode. If it is determined that the printing information has a format that satisfies the format X of PS mode, the printing information is processed as that of PS mode and the printing data is sent to the laser printer engine. On the other hand, if it is determined that the printing information does not have a format that satisfies the format X of PS mode, the printing information is processed as that of HP mode and the printing data is sent to the laser printer engine.
