ABSTRACT:
A printer controller capable of emulating two or more types of printers which operate in different operation modes, the emulator being operable according to each batch of print data in selected a selected one of the different modes. The emulator includes a print data memory for storing a received batch of print data, which contains character codes and mode-determinative codes, and a point-table memory for storing point tables corresponding to the different operation modes, each point table listing predetermined points to be given to the mode-determinative codes, respectively. The points indicate degrees of probability that each operation mode corresponding to each table is selected as an effective operation mode for the relevant batch of print data. The emulator is provided with a device for scanning the point tables, summing the points of the mode-determinative codes included in the received print data, to obtain sums of the points for all the different operation modes, and determining one of the operation modes as the effective operation mode on the basis of the sums obtained for the different operation modes.
