ABSTRACT:
In a printing control apparatus, when a job accepting unit accepts a print job including a designated printer name, a queue allocating unit decides whether the designated printer name is a virtual printer name or a physical printer name. If the printer name is the virtual printer name, the queue allocating unit adds to the job virtual printer setting information related to the printer name beforehand and appends the job to the tail of a queue corresponding the virtual printer within a spool queue unit. If the printer name is the physical printer name, the queue allocating unit transmits print job data directly to the designated printer. Thus, the user can make certain of operating the specific physical printer without the aid of any queue by designating the physical printer name, so that processability in real time is improved.
