PURPOSE: To shorten a wait time for printout by outputting data which needs to be printed out urgently.
CONSTITUTION: CPU determines whether there is any output hindrance in an output part, in step S1. If it is determined that there is an output hindrance, CPU waits until the output is normalized. Then if it is found that the normalization is realized in step S2, CPU interprets whether an output source for image information is set in the following step S3. If it is interpreted that setting an output sequence is already done in step S3, CPU outputs image information according to the set output sequence. However, it is determined that the output sequence has not been set, in step S3 or there is no output hindrance in the output part, in step S1, CPU processes the operating sequence in step S4 so that image information is output in the order of data stored in a storage part.
