Abstract:
An image processing apparatus includes a timing obtaining unit that obtains an interruption timing at which printing is interrupted in a printer that transports a printing medium in a first direction and performs printing on the printing medium, a division computing unit that arranges, at a position corresponding to the timing in a target area in which plural images are to be arranged, a virtual straight line extending through the target area in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, an arrangement computing unit that separates and arranges the plural images in the target area divided by the virtual straight line into a first region downstream and a second region upstream in the first direction, and a data creating unit that creates and outputs, to the printer, first print data specifying the images arranged in the first region and second print data specifying the images arranged in the second region.

Claim (Index 6):
The image processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the data creating unit includes:\n a rendering unit that performs rendering of the images in the first region and then performs rendering of the images in the second region; and a halftone processing unit that creates the first print data by performing, while the rendering unit performs rendering of the images in the second region, a halftone process on the images in the first region on which rendering has been performed by the rendering unit.
