Abstract

Printing control includes determining printing dot density of print data to be supplied to a printing head, averaging the printing dot density during a predetermined period of time based on the printing dot density determined, selecting a printing speed in response to the average value of printing dot density, and controlling printing to print at the selected printing speed.
