Image recording apparatus, control method of image recording apparatus, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium

An image recording apparatus comprising:

• a conveyance mechanism configured to convey a sheet-shaped medium in a conveyance direction;
• a recorder configured to record an image on the sheet-shaped medium conveyed by the conveyance mechanism;
• an interface;
• and
• a controller configured to:
• receive image data including one or a plurality of images, each of the images being to be recorded on one page, the image data being provided from an external apparatus;
• determine whether to perform a combination-recording in which a plurality of images are aligned in the conveyance direction and recorded on a single sheet-shaped medium;
• in a case where image data including the plurality of images is received and it is determined that the combination-recording is to be performed:
• cause the conveyance mechanism to convey a single sheet-shaped medium;
• perform data combining to combine, into one image data, image data including one or a plurality of images recorded on a first page and image data including one or a plurality of images recorded on a second page;
• and
• cause the recorder to record a plurality of images aligned in the conveyance direction on the single sheet-shaped medium, based on the one image data obtained by the data combining;
• and
• in a case where a number of images included in the received image data is larger than a number of images to be combined in the combination-recording input to the interface, to notify that the number of images included in the received image data is larger than the number of images input to the interface.

An image recording apparatus comprising:

• a conveyance mechanism configured to convey a sheet-shaped medium in a conveyance direction;
• a recorder configured to record an image on the sheet-shaped medium conveyed by the conveyance mechanism;
• an interface;
• and
• a controller configured to:
• receive image data including one or a plurality of images, each of the images being to be recorded on one page, the image data being provided from an external apparatus;
• determine whether to perform a combination-recording in which a plurality of images are aligned in the conveyance direction and recorded on a single sheet-shaped medium;
• in a case where image data including the plurality of images is received and it is determined that the combination-recording is to be performed:
• cause the conveyance mechanism to convey a single sheet-shaped medium;
• perform data combining to combine, into one image data, image data including one or a plurality of images recorded on a first page and image data including one or a plurality of images recorded on a second page;
• and
• cause the recorder to record a plurality of images aligned in the conveyance direction on the single sheet-shaped medium, based on the one image data obtained by the data combining;
• and
• in a case where a number of images included in the received image data is equal to or less than a number of images to be combined in the combination-recording input to the interface, to cause the recorder to perform the combination-recording based on the received image data.

An image recording apparatus comprising:

• a conveyance mechanism configured to convey a sheet-shaped medium in a conveyance direction;
• a recorder configured to record an image on the sheet-shaped medium conveyed by the conveyance mechanism;
• a first accommodation part in which a roll body having a configuration where a sheet-shaped medium is rolled in a roll shape is accommodated;
• a second accommodation part in which a plurality of sheet-shaped media are accommodated in a state of being stacked;
• and
• a controller configured to:
• receive image data including one or a plurality of images, each of the images being to be recorded on one page, the image data being provided from an external apparatus;
• determine whether to perform a combination-recording in which a plurality of images are aligned in the conveyance direction and recorded on a single sheet-shaped medium;
• in a case where image data including the plurality of images is received and it is determined that the combination-recording is to be performed:
• cause the conveyance mechanism to convey a single sheet-shaped medium;
• perform data combining to combine, into one image data, image data including one or a plurality of images recorded on a first page and image data including one or a plurality of images recorded on a second page;
• and
• cause the recorder to record a plurality of images aligned in the conveyance direction on the single sheet-shaped medium, based on the one image data obtained by the data combining;
• and
• in a case where image data including one image is received, to cause the conveyance mechanism to convey the sheet-shaped medium accommodated in the second accommodation part.

• a recorder configured to record an image on the sheet-shaped medium conveyed by the conveyance mechanism;
• a first accommodation part in which a roll body having a configuration where a sheet-shaped medium is rolled in a roll shape is accommodated;
• and
• a second accommodation part in which a plurality of sheet-shaped media are accommodated in a state of being stacked;
• and
• a controller configured to:
• receive image data including one or a plurality of images, each of the images being to be recorded on one page, the image data being provided from an external apparatus;
• determine whether to perform a combination-recording in which a plurality of images are aligned in the conveyance direction and recorded on a single sheet-shaped medium;
• in a case where image data including the plurality of images is received and it is determined that the combination-recording is to be performed:
• cause the conveyance mechanism to convey a single sheet-shaped medium;
• perform data combining to combine, into one image data, image data including one or a plurality of images recorded on a first page and image data including one or a plurality of images recorded on a second page;
• and
• cause the recorder to record a plurality of images aligned in the conveyance direction on the single sheet-shaped medium, based on the one image data obtained by the data combining;
• and
• in a case where image data including a plurality of images is received and it is determined that the combination-recording is not to be performed, to cause the conveyance mechanism to sequentially convey the sheet-shaped media accommodated in the second accommodation part.
