Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, digital printers having multiple paper feeders do not allow the operator to identify the paper that will be used to print the image depicted by the print data, which is also an inconvenience of the conventional preview
In other words, a printer that uses different types of paper for appropriate purposes cannot allow the operator to check in advance whether the print data and the paper to be used correspond correctly to each other
[0008] There is another problem with slip sheets (or inserts) that are inserted between printed sheets to differentiate the printed sheets
In particular, it is not possible for the operator to easily check which paper was used as the slip sheet
Since previews based on print data generally do not contain information about slip sheets, it is not possible for the operator to check in advance whether the desired slip sheet will be inserted in the correct position between the printed sheets

Embodiment Construction

[0038] Description of the preferred embodiment

[0039] Figure 1 is a diagram of a printing system 100 in accordance with the present invention. The printing system 100 includes a controller 1, a printer 2, and a communication line CL.

[0040] The controller 1 is a device equivalent to a general-purpose personal computer, and includes a CPU 11 , a display section 12 , an input section 13 , a network I / F (interface) 14 , a media drive 15 , a storage section 16 , and a memory 17 .

[0041] The CPU 11 controls the entire controller 1 . In particular, the CPU 11 executes a program recorded on a media disk 18 in the memory 17 for realizing the functions of the controller 1 .

[0042] The display section 12 displays various information required to display a preview image in the controller 1 . The input part 13 includes a mouse and a keyboard, and is used for the operator to input commands to the controller 1 .

[0043] The network I / F 14 is used to establish a connection betwee...

Abstract

In a printing system, a controller defines identification information for identifying a plurality of paper feed cassettes provided in a printing machine for each of the paper feed cassettes. When an operator specifies a paper feed cassette for feeding a sheet for printing of an image represented by print data, the controller stores a correspondence between the print data and the specified paper feed cassette. Based on the correspondence, the controller combines the identification information assigned to the paper feed cassette corresponding to the print data with the image represented by the print data to create a preview image, and then displays the preview image. Prior to the execution of the printing, the operator can thereby easily recognize which paper feed cassette stores the sheet on which the image represented by the print data is to be printed.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to a printing system comprising a controller for supplying print data to a printer, and a printer for printing on paper an image depicted by the print data, wherein the print data is provided by the control provided by the device. In particular, the invention relates to a printing system that provides a preview of an image before printing it on paper. Background technique [0002] Software applications, such as word processing and spreadsheet software applications, that have the ability to display a preview of an image that an operator can view to determine in advance whether print data is being printed correctly, wherein the image is electronically generated Print the data depicted. [0003] This preview function can also be used in printing systems including digital printers and controllers. The digital printer rasterizes page data described in a page description language to directly print an image described by the...
