A UI program is recorded on a non-transitory computer readable medium for operating a computer as a print control apparatus in cooperation with a driver core module. The UI program causes the computer to execute: a first display control step of running a display program and displaying first setting items EC&#x3b1; (ECto ECand EC), and a second display control step of running a default program and displaying a second setting item EC&#x3b2; (EC) which cannot be displayed by the display program. In the second display control step, the second setting item EC&#x3b2; (EC) is displayed in a position adjacent to one of the first setting items EC&#x3b1; (EC) having the same group information as the second setting item EC&#x3b2; (EC).
