Abstract
A printer has a queue for queuing a queued execution command, an immediate execution agent for executing a write command, and a queued execution agent for executing a read command. The immediate execution agent immediately executes the received write command, and writes data in a host. The queued execution agent picks up a read command from the queue, and reads out data from the host. The host appends a data transfer request from the printer to a queue, issues a write command to the printer on the basis of that data transfer request, and issues a read command to the printer on the basis of a print data transmission request or the like from an application. Independent full-duplex channels can be provided in two directions. Also, a write command can be immediately processed.
