Abstract

When a network printer receives print data appended with related data from a client device via a network (S11), the related data is separated from the print data (S12) and stored in a predetermined region of a hard disk (S13). The print data is stored in the hard disk (S14) in correspondence with the related data. Then, printing is executed to print out the print data (S15). When a user requests display of the related data (S16:YES), the related data is displayed on a display (S17). The related data includes related image data and management data. When a user requests printing of the related data (S18:YES), a printer engine prints out the related data (S19). In this way, the user can select desired print data in a short period of time.
