Abstract
When color measurement is performed, a printer driver of a host apparatustransmits a job start command 'JS' to a printer, then performs printing instruction (print data transmission for color measurement printing), color measurement instruction, reception of a color measurement result (color measurement data) from a color measuring device (a color meterand a color measurement driving device), label printing instruction, job information storage instruction, and positioning instruction, and subsequently transmits a job end command 'JE' to the printer. During a period from the job start command “JS” until the job end command “JE” is received, a communication connect between the printerand the host apparatusis maintained while an interrupt from other than the host apparatusis inhibited.
