Abstract
An image output control apparatus, an image output control method for such an image output control apparatus, and a storage medium, in which, the total number of output copies when image data input by an image input device is output by plural image output devices is set, and the total number of output copies is distributed to the respective image output devices outputting the image data on the basis of distribution priority order previously stored in a memory and for distributing the total number of output copies to the plural image output devices. Thus, even after the plural image output devices for performing the image output are specified, distribution control based on the distribution priority order for the plural image output devices is enabled.
