Abstract
A method is for setting configuration data to a print data supplying device. The print data supplying device is operable to: store data associated with at least one of a plurality of items of group information in a first storage area; generate print data based on: (1) internal print data generated by an internal print data generation program; and (2) configuration data associated with one of the items of group information corresponding to a printer to which the print data is supplied; and supply the print data to the printer. The method includes: determining whether or not a target printer is connected; generating a new item of group information corresponding to the target printer when the target printer is connected; and storing reference configuration data that is stored in a second storage area to the first storage area, as the configuration data, in association with the new item of the group information.
