Image data output device and method for reordering and outputting data

An image data output device comprising:

• a first data information acquirer for acquiring information concerning image data that has been inputted;
• a plurality of first memory regions for storing image data;
• a data memory controller for storing said image data in a corresponding memory region from among said plurality of first memory regions on the basis of information that has been acquired by said first data information acquirer;
• a second data information acquirer for acquiring information concerning image data that has been stored in said first memory regions by said data memory controller;
• a managing part for managing the order of output of data that has been set for each of said first memory regions;
• a second memory region for storing image data identification information which identifies image data in the order of the output managed by said managing part on the basis of information that has been acquired by said second data information acquirer;
• and
• an outputting part for outputting image data in accordance with the order stored in said second memory region.
