Abstract
A computer data print-out system is formed by a computer, a plurality of stencil printers and a computer interface unit connected between the computer and the stencil printers. The computer interface unit makes output data on the basis of raster image data and input resolution data representing the resolution of the raster image data which are input from the computer and outputs the output data into one of the stencil printers. The computer interface unit reads out from each of the stencil printers the output resolution data representing the output resolution at which the stencil printer can make print, selects out of the stencil printers connected to the computer interface unit a stencil printer which has an output resolution equal to the resolution of the raster image data, and outputs the output data into the selected stencil printer.
