Abstract
For a plurality of kinds of printing media, spectral information is produced from results of printing of at least five points in paper white of the printing media, black, and three primary colors of coloring and printing materials, and a learned model is generated in advance by machine learning that uses the spectral information as learning data. An identification section that identifies the kinds of the printing media by using the learned model is provided. The kinds of the printing media are identified by applying the spectral information produced from the results of printing of at least five points on a printing target medium on which printing is to be performed to the learned model, and the printing target medium is processed in accordance with the identified kind of the printing target medium. In the case of a new unlearned printing medium, transfer learning is performed to learn the printing medium, and the model is updated.
