Abstract
An information processing apparatus transmits a print job including input image data to an image processing apparatus connected thereto, and includes: a determination unit that determines whether a width and/or height of the input image data is smaller than a predetermined threshold, and whether a scaling factor for the image data at a time of output is one or less; a color value determination unit that determines color values of pixels constituting the image data in the case that it has been determined that the width and/or height of the image data is smaller than the predetermined threshold and that the scaling factor for the image data at the time of output is one or less; and a transmission unit that, in the case that it has been determined that the pixels constituting the image data have the same color value, transmits replacement image data having a smaller size.
