Claim 8:
9. The printing method according to claim 8, further comprising a roll replacement timing setting step of setting whether to replace a roll paper at an early timing after start of continuous printing based on the plurality of print jobs or to replace a roll paper at a later timing from start of continuous printing based on the plurality of print jobs, wherein
when the production time reduction mode is set as the priority mode in the priority mode setting step, and a setting of replacing a roll paper at an early timing after start of continuous printing based on the plurality of print jobs is made in the roll replacement timing setting step, the job execution schedule is created so that, for the executable job group, a print job included in a job group having a shorter total print distance is executed earlier than a print job included in a job group having a longer total print distance in the scheduling step, and
when the production time reduction mode is set as the priority mode in the priority mode setting step, and a setting of replacing a roll paper at a later timing from start of continuous printing based on the plurality of print jobs is made in the roll replacement timing setting step, the job execution schedule is created so that, for the executable job group, a print job included in a job group having a longer total print distance is executed earlier than a print job included in a job group having a shorter total print distance in the scheduling step.
