| 20090251716 | PRINTING APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE PRINTING APPARATUS, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - A printing apparatus which is capable of appropriately discharging extra tab sheets, without placing the burden of removing the extra tab sheets on a user even in the case of attaching tab sheets into sheets to be subjected to reverse-order printing. An MFP controller determines a number of tab sheets to be attached to one copy of the printout of a print job. After causing discharge of extra tab sheets corresponding in number to a difference between the determined number and a number of tab sheets forming one set are discharged, the MFP causes the printout of the print job to be discharged starting with an N-th sheet. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20090273798 | PRINT CONTROL APPARATUS AND PRINT CONTROL METHOD FOR THE SAME - A PDL controller divides a print job of providing instructions to perform printing using color toners and a clear toner into a print job using the color toners and a print job using the clear toner in accordance with a ratio in an entire image formed on the basis of the print job of an image area when a sum of a total amount of the color toners used and a predetermined amount of the special toner used exceeds an upper limit of an amount of toner used in printing, and transmits the print jobs to a printing apparatus. Also, when printing based on the print job using the clear toner is to be performed, the PDL controller allows a display unit to display a guide to set a printout generated on the basis of the print job using the color toners to a paper feeder. | 11-05-2009 |
