Abstract
Provided is a printing system capable of printing, when one or more pages are replaced after raster image processing (RIP), by performing RIP of only the page(s) to be replaced. A job ticket is issued from a printing apparatus. In a printing data creating apparatus, information of page data for replacement is added to the content of the job ticket and then sent to the printing apparatus together with the page data for replacement. In the printing apparatus, only the received page data for replacement is subjected to RIP, and then printing after replacement processing is executed in accordance with the job ticket. It is unnecessary to perform again RIP of printing data irrelevant to the replacement. This increases the efficiency of processing and also lowers the cost.
