Abstract
When a printing apparatus is connected to a personal computer, an editing program for editing an object to be printed by the printing apparatus is actuated. The printing apparatus connected is set as a printing apparatus to be used, and a layout-editing screen is displayed. A layout image in which a medium set in the printing apparatus is set as a medium to be used is displayed on the layout-editing screen. When the printing apparatus is changed, or the medium set in the printing apparatus is changed while the editing program is being operated, a new layout-editing screen is displayed in which a new printing apparatus, or a new medium, is set as the printing apparatus, or the medium, to be used.
