The image forming apparatus includes: a log obtaining unit (S1000) configured to obtain a print log which is an execution history of a print job; a color utilization ratio obtaining unit (S1001) configured to obtain a color utilization ratio which is a ratio of chromatic color material utilization when past print jobs were executed from the print log obtained by the log obtaining unit; a determination unit (S1002-S1004) configured to determine to perform mixed color correction and single color correction when the color utilization ratio obtained by the color utilization ratio obtaining unit is equal to or larger than a threshold value and to perform the single color correction without performing the mixed color correction when the color utilization ratio is smaller than the threshold value; and a correction unit (S1007, 801) configured to perform the correction determined by the determination unit.

The present invention realizes a network printing system capable of accumulating and chasing printed data. Further, by providing a job chasing function on the printer driver side, detailed setting can be done to extract history information of the job chasing function. The detailed setting to extract history information to chase a job can be done only by a specific administrator or user so that the job can be reliably chased, whereas the administrator or user can obtain desired history information. Accordingly, a precise jog chasing system can be established.

A density correction apparatus for an object comprises a correcting unit which, when generating data for printing a tint block image and the object in a superposed manner, corrects the density of the object in accordance with the tint block image. The density of a printed image, which is made by printing the object whose density has been corrected by the correcting unit and the tint block image in a superposed manner, is higher than a density of tint block image in the printed image.

Provided are a print layout device, a print layout method and a storage medium therefor with which all data can always be printed by ensuring that data to be printed do not extend out beyond the limits of a printable area, as may occur when the conventional margin setting process is used, with which a margin can be set by employing an additional special print method, such as an N-up print method, and with which a binding margin can be set for bookbinding. In addition, provided is a configuration for implementing those apparatuses and devices without modifying the conventional portions. A host computer comprises a despooler, which calculates a printable area using margin parameters set by a user, enlarges/reduces print data in consonance with the obtained printable area, performs a layout for the resultant data to be printed and margins on a sheet, and prints the data using that layout. The despooler outputs prepared drawing data to a graphic engine to provide a printer driver in a conventional manner.

When an original image is to be printed as a poster composed of an array of 4 × 4 output images, an image is generated by enlarging the original image fourfold in the vertical and horizontal directions and dividing the enlarged image into 16 parts. These 16 partial images are output successively starting from the upper left or lower right of the 4 × 4 array, depending upon the designation. If there is a blank page, the blank page is output as is even if the printer possesses a blank-paper economizing function. Thus, when a poster printing function is used, the user designates the manner in which the enlarged image is divided up and the order in which the divided images are printed. Even if the printer is equipped with the blank-paper economizing function, normal printed results can be obtained merely by joining the output sheets together in the order that conforms to the manner in which the enlarged image was divided.

A printing apparatus which can improve a print throughput in consideration of a color processing mode suitable for print data is provided. The color processing mode is decided on the basis of information of color attribute included in the print data and added to output data, the resultant data is transferred to the printing apparatus, and further, the color processing mode is decided by a page unit.
