Abstract
To provide a technique for allowing a user of an external device to easily use a printer on which sheet information can be designated, when a print job is submitted from the external device to the printer.SOLUTION: According to a printer driver 23, a PC 1 is configured to: acquire, when receiving a print instruction from an editing application 22 and receiving image data and print settings including sheet information, sheet information designated for a label printer 3 from the label printer 3; and determine whether or not the acquired sheet information is coincident with the sheet information received from the editing application 22. The PC 1 transmits, when the coincidence is determined, a print command to perform printing based on the image data received from the editing application 22 to the label printer 3, and transmits, when non-coincidence is determined, a notification command to the label printer 3, the notification command indicating a set of sheets corresponding to the sheet information included in the print command and a designation of the sheet information.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4
