Printing control system, non-transitory computer readable medium storing printing control program, and printing control method

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a printing control program that causes a processor included in a printing control system to execute processing of:

• converting printing jobs that are received into printable data formats using a data conversion module;
• determining whether the number of pages included in the printing jobs before data conversion exceeds the number of pages set in advance in a case where the printing jobs before the data conversion reach a consecutive number set in advance;
• and
• executing, in a case where a determination is made that the printing jobs having the number of pages equal to or less than the number of pages set in advance are consecutive for the number equal to or larger than the consecutive number, job parallel processing of activating a plurality of the data conversion modules to prepare the plurality of data conversion modules, respectively assigning the plurality of data conversion modules to a plurality of the printing jobs before the data conversion, and performing parallel processing of the data conversion on the plurality of printing jobs before the data conversion.
