Abstract

To increase the efficiency of graphic data print process in a printer, graphic print data such as diagrams and images are compressed in a personal computer according to a special compression/coding format specific of the printer to be used so that the resultant compressed graphic print data can be developed into dot image data in the printer. The resultant compressed graphic print data is transmitted to the printer and is temporarily stored in reception data buffer of the printer. The compressed graphic print data stored in the reception data buffer is developed into dot image print data. Printing is performed on a print sheet by a printing mechanism according to the developed dot image print data.
