Abstract:
1. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a data processing program for controlling a computer to perform steps comprising: inputting data; detecting a type of the inputted data; determining an ink reduction rate based on the type of the inputted data by referencing a table indicating correspondences between a plurality of ink reduction rates and a plurality of types of data, wherein each ink reduction rate of the plurality of ink reduction rates indicates a ratio of a difference between a first ink consumption amount and a second ink consumption amount to the first ink consumption amount, wherein the first ink consumption amount indicates an ink amount to be consumed when printing is executed without reducing ink, wherein the second ink consumption amount indicates an ink amount to be consumed when printing is executed with reducing ink, and wherein the plurality of ink reduction rates comprises a first ink reduction rate and a second ink reduction rate that is different from the first ink reduction rate; and correcting the inputted data based on the determined ink reduction rate,
