Abstract
A printer includes: a generation unit sequentially converting each of partial original data of a plurality of pages included in original data designated as a print target by a specific user into each of partial print data in a memory; a supply unit sequentially supplying each of the partial print data to a print execution unit; and a confirmation unit, whenever the partial print data of one page is generated, confirming whether the specific user is present around the printer. When it is not confirmed that the specific user is present around the printer when first partial print data of one page is generated, the supply unit does not supply the first partial print data to the print execution unit, and the generation unit starts to generate second partial print data of another page in the memory.
