Abstract
A plurality of images is sequentially printed on a sheet, and the sheet is cut at a cut position that is behind the finally-printed image. At that time, if an inappropriate region of the fed sheet that is not suited to printing is detected, and the detected inappropriate region is behind the finally-printed image, the cut position is changed to be behind the detected inappropriate region.
