System and method of avoiding conflicting printer job language processing

An image forming device comprising:

• a printing control device, the printing control device comprising:
• a banner data detecting unit that detects banner data from print data, the print data comprising the banner data, a banner printing condition that designates a printing condition for printing the banner, text located after the banner data in the print data, and a text printing condition for printing the text, wherein the data detecting unit determines whether (i) an identifier indicating a beginning of the text printing condition added to a top of the text printing condition is detected in a predetermined limited range which is determined by considering the maximum quantity of the banner data to be handled and whether (ii) any data except for data designating the printing condition is detected in front of the identifier and detects the banner data if it is determined that the identifier is detected in the predetermined limited range and the data except for the data designating the printing condition is detected in front of the identifier;
• a data acquiring unit that, when the banner data is detected by the banner data detecting unit, skips the banner printing condition and acquires the text printing condition for printing the text;
• and
• a printing condition setting unit that sets, when the text printing condition for printing the text is acquired by the data acquiring unit, the text printing condition as a printing condition for printing the text;
• and
• an image forming unit that is controlled by the printing control device to form an image on a recording medium.

A printing control system comprising:

• a banner data detecting unit that detects banner data from print data, the print data comprising the banner data, a banner printing condition that designates a printing condition for printing the banner, text located after the banner data in the print data, and a text printing condition for printing the text, wherein the data detecting unit determines whether (i) an identifier indicating a beginning of the text printing condition added to a top of the text printing condition is detected in a predetermined limited range which is determined by considering the maximum quantity of the banner data to be handled and whether (ii) any data except for data designating the printing condition is detected in front of the identifier and detects the banner data if it is determined that the identifier is detected in the predetermined limited range and the data except for the data designating the printing condition is detected in front of the identifier;
• a data acquiring unit that, when the banner data is detected by the banner data detecting unit, skips the banner printing condition and acquires the text printing condition for printing the text;
• and
• a printing condition setting unit that sets, when the text printing condition for printing the text is acquired by the data acquiring unit, the text printing condition as a printing condition for printing the text.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for setting a printing condition:

• detecting banner data from print data, the print data comprising the banner data, a banner printing condition that designates a printing condition for printing the banner, text located after the banner data in the print data, and a text printing condition for printing the text, wherein the detecting the banner data from the print data comprises determining whether (i) an identifier indicating a beginning of the text printing condition added to a top of the text printing condition is detected in a predetermined limited range which is determined by considering the maximum quantity of the banner data to be handled and whether (ii) any data except for data designating the printing condition is detected in front of the identifier and detecting the banner data if it is determined that the identifier is detected in the predetermined limited range and the data except for the data designating the printing condition is detected in front of the identifier;
• when the banner data is detected, skipping the banner printing condition and acquiring the text printing condition for printing the text;
• and
• setting, when the text printing condition for printing the text is acquired, the text printing condition as a printing condition for printing the text.
