Image rasterization processing apparatus using intermediate language form data, computer-readable recording medium storing program and image processing method

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program which causes a computer, which performs rasterization processing with respect to intermediate language form data created from page description language form data by using a plurality of operation sections, to function as:

• a control member to generate a plurality of segmented regions by dividing each of a plurality of bands of the intermediate language form data into a plurality of pieces based on the number of the operation sections, and to assign each of the segmented regions to a respective one of the operation sections.
