Abstract
In an image controller, a VDP, a CPU, and a printer section, which are needed to prepare and print an image signal, are provided in the same housing. The CPU supplies an image parameter corresponding to a printing state of the printer to the VDP, so that a user can recognize a shortage of printing paper of the printer and a setting defectiveness of the printing paper, RGB data for one horizontal line is written to an RGB line memory of an RGB buffer section of the VDP, and a print processing is executed based on the RGB data transferred to the work RAM.
