Benefits of technology

Enables the conversion of monochrome printing to color printing within the existing system, increasing the flexibility of printer configurations and allowing for the implementation of colorization without changing the printer's hardware or software, thus enhancing the output expression performance.

Problems solved by technology

In the printer and a printer system, it is needed to improve an output expression performance of a printed material that is made by the existing apparatus introduced already, in many cases, for a poor output expressing performance of the existing apparatus.
In this case, when replacing the whole system, the cost and time are consumed and the replacing may interfere in the business.
Also, it is not possible to change an output form of the whole printed material, such as addition of a new image object and designation of a whole color or background image.
Since the target may be a receipt, this technology does not have an idea to change the output form of the whole printed material.
Therefore, a case where the graphic effect can be added is restricted.

Embodiment Construction

[0038]Hereinafter, an exemplary embodiment of the invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0039]FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram showing a configuration of a printing system 1 according to an exemplary embodiment.

[0040]As shown in FIG. 1, the printing system 1 is configured by connecting a host computer 2 outputting a printing instruction (recording instruction), a printer 3 (recording apparatus) and a template terminal 5 via a network 4. FIG. 1 includes a printer 6 that the printing system does not include for illustrative purposes.

[0041]The host computer 2 is a computer having a CPU that executes a program, a ROM that stores a basic control program to be executed or data to be processed by the CPU, a RAM that temporarily stores the executed program or the processed data by the CPU, a non-volatile storage device that stores the program or data, and the like. The host computer 2 has an application program 21 for executing processing such as document creation a...

Abstract

A data processing apparatus includes a processing unit that distinguishes a command of a first command system including commands designating attributes of a printing form and a command of a second command system including commands designating attributes that are not defined in the first command system. When a recording instruction including an instruction designating the printing form by a command of the first command system and data arranged in accordance with the printing form designated by the command of the first command system are input, the processing unit arranges the data included in the recording instruction in accordance with a printing form designated by the command of the second command system to generate recording data.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCES TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13 / 859,683, filed on Apr. 9, 2013, which claims priority to Japanese Patent Application No. 2012-089074 filed on Apr. 10, 2012, the entirety of which is incorporated by reference herein.BACKGROUND[0002]1. Technical Field[0003]The invention relates to a data processing apparatus that processes recording data, a recording apparatus and a control method of the data processing apparatus.[0004]2. Related Art[0005]In the related art, a receipt printer of a POS system and a printer for business use such as label printer that prints a goods label, a label for delivery and the like have been used. In the printer and a printer system, it is needed to improve an output expression performance of a printed material that is made by the existing apparatus introduced already, in many cases, for a poor output expressing performance of the existing apparatus. For example, there are nee...
