Abstract
There is provided a method for appropriately coping with a case where a unique portion of a sheet is detected at the time of performing printing on a second surface of the sheet in both-side printing. If the unique portion position end mark is detected and it is determined that it is on the other side surface of the sheet, a length of the unique portion area is calculated. In addition, among images that are already printed by the printing onto the one side surface of the sheet, an image on the one side surface of the sheet corresponding to the calculated unique portion area is detected. Next, a group of the detected image on the one side surface and the image on the other side surface corresponding to the detected image are extracted as reprint data, which is stored in a predetermined memory.
