Abstract
A printer system flexibly adaptable to various printer languages. The printer system combines a printer device and at least one data processing device. The data processing device and the printer device respectively have an intermediate code generating element for generating the intermediate code compatible with the print data and an intermediate code rasterization element for rasterizing the generated intermediate code into print image information. The printer device further has a printing element for controlling print image information rasterized by an intermediate code rasterization element and prints on the basis of stored print image information. An intermediate code generating element analyzes print data described in a language not corresponding to the intermediate code generating element of the printer device.
