Abstract
A printer is connected to a printer connection section of an injection molding machine in order to print data regarding the injection molding machine. A controller of the injection molding machine has a printer judgment function for determining a type of the printer, and a data conversion function for converting print data to control codes suitable for the type of the printer. Before printing, a type of the printer connected to the printer connection section is determined by means of the printer judgment function. During printing, print data are converted to control codes suitable for the determined type of the printer by means of the data conversion function, and the control codes are transmitted to the printer.
