Printer, Printing program, and printing method

A printing program that is used to control a printer that includes a print head in which nozzles that form an image by discharging ink are arranged in a plurality of lines, wherein the printer prints out an image on the basis of print form data in which information of layout contents of printing elements that form the content of print is set according to the attribute of each printing element, wherein the printing program is used to execute a process on a computer, the process comprising:

• selecting a piece of print form data, which is used for printing, from among multiple pieces of print form data, which are stored in a print form data storage unit that stores the multiple pieces of print form data having different layout contents of the printing elements according to the content of usage, in a specific sequence that is set so that, when the printing is continuously performed, the frequencies of use of the nozzles of the print head are uniform and are equal to or higher than a predetermined frequency;
• selecting a piece of printing element data corresponding to each piece of information of layout content that is set in the selected piece of print form data from among multiple types of pieces of printing element data that are stored in a printing element data storage unit that stores the multiple types of pieces of printing element data, which are data of the printing elements, according to the attribute of each printing element;
• and
• inserting the selected piece of printing element data into the selected piece of print form data on the basis of information of the content of print, which is set in the selected piece of print form data.
