Printing control system and method

Abstract

A printing control system includes a drawing unit, a block data generating unit and a controlling unit. The drawing unit sets a drawing region in which a region of an original image falls, and draws the original image in the drawing region so that a center of the region of the original image is in coincidence with a center of the drawing region. The block data generating unit divides the drawing region into a plurality of blocks, each block having a size and shape identical to one another, and generates block data representative of the plurality of blocks. The controlling unit performs an image processing on a block data basis to generate print data. The image processing includes a rotating processing for rotating each block.
