Abstract
A controller () controls band data generating of a band data generating section (), band data storing of the storage section (), print image producing of the print image producing section (), and printing of the printing section (). The controller () allows the storage section () to store repeating use instruction information indicating that previous band data is to be repeatedly used when the newly generated band data to be stored in the storage section () is identical to the previous band data. The controller () allows the image producing section () to produce a print image by using expanded data of previous band data in place of expanded data of band associated with the repeating use instruction information stored in the storage section ().
