Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure provide a method and an apparatus that can ensure transferring a page over a communication link having a transfer rate to satisfy a print rate by reducing a data size of the page. The method for printing a page can include allocating a transfer rate to a printer having a print rate, generating a first printable raster page at a first print quality, determining whether the first printable raster page can be transferred to the printer at the transfer rate and satisfy the print rate of the printer, generating a second printable raster page at a second print quality that is lower than the first print quality, when the first printable raster page can not be transferred to the printer at the transfer rate and satisfy the print rate of the printer, and transferring the second printable raster page to the printer.
