Patent ID: 8068240

Claim:
A print control device that utilizes a display section and a print execution section, comprising: a processing condition determining section that determines processing conditions for printing using original image data; and a print data generating section that generates print data from the original image data according to the processing conditions, the print data being supplied to the print execution section, wherein the processing condition determining section comprises: a first setting section that, if the original image data is a first type of original image data that is developed, causes a first setting screen to be displayed on the display section, the first setting screen allowing a user to make settings for a first items group, for a purpose of determining the processing conditions for the first type of original image data; and a second setting section that, if the original image data is a second type of original image data that is undeveloped, causes a second setting screen to be displayed on the display section, the second setting screen allowing the user to make settings for a second items group, for a purpose of determining the processing conditions for the second type of original image data, wherein the second items group includes a specific item not included in the first items group; and wherein the print data generating section comprises: a developing process section that, if the original image data is the second type of original image data, executes on the second type of original image data a developing process that includes a specific process according to a setting for the specific item; and wherein the developing process section executes the developing process and generates developed image data for printing, the second setting section comprises: a display image data adjusting section that, prior to execution of the developing process, adjusts developed image data, as adjusted image data, for display corresponding to the second type of original image data, in such a way that a tone characteristic of the image data for display is brought into approximation with a tone characteristic of the image data for printing, and the second setting section causes to be displayed the second setting screen that includes an image represented by the adjusted image data for display.
