Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable to simplify a program, by a method wherein a data memory having a capacity for one page amount or an integer times thereof is provided in a data processor, a one-line amount of data is instantaneously outputted controlledly, and the rest is momentarily stored in the memory. CONSTITUTION:When printing data D, a printing command I 0 and a starting signal S0 are inputted, a controlling part IDC causes data for one head line to be instantaneously fed out to a printer PRT to start the latter, while the rest of the data is divided into one-line amounts by a memory input controlling part MIC, and the one-line amounts of data are stored into respective positions in the memory MEM. When the commands amount to the number of lines in one page, the controlling part IDC starts a memory-reading and printer-controlling part MOC, stops the next data reception and reading, feeds a page- shifting commands to the printer PRT, then reads the next one-page amount of data stored in the memory MEM, and prints the data. When these operations are repeated for all pages, reservation of the controlling part IDC is cleared. Accordingly, the program is simplified, and the outputted result becomes clear to be examined visually.

保留を解除する。The remaining data Dε is sent to the memory input control unit MIC, and the memory input control unit MiC is activated.・(S
z indicates a start signal. ) When the memory input control unit MIC is activated, it divides the data into one printer line each and stores each in a predetermined position in the memory MEM based on the memory 1 inclusion signal WE. If the command received by the data input and operation control unit IDC is skip (line change), the data is all blanked and the same operation as the above printing is performed. When the print command reaches the number of lines on one page, the IDC starts the memory reading and printer control unit MOC (Ss), and suspends the next data reception (data reading). That is, the sending of the memory successive output signal RE is stopped. When activated, the memory reading and printer control unit MOC first sends a page change command to the printer PRT to activate it. Next, data for the same page stored in the second memory MEM is sequentially taken out by the memory read signal RE and sent to the printer PRT for printing. This process is repeated for all pages, and when completed, the IDC suspension release signal RLS releases the suspension of the control unit IDc for data input and operation of each section.

In this way, in the present invention, we focused on the fact that it is easier to see if one line of data is displayed in printer output on a page-by-page basis rather than displaying one line of data in multiple lines by changing lines, and we This was achieved by providing a memory function and the desired control function during the operation of the device. In addition, in order to minimize the required storage area (memory amount), the first printer line is output without going through the storage area.

Even if it exceeds the limit, the program can be created without being aware of it, which simplifies the program and makes the output results easier to see. Moreover, the memory capacity required to realize this method can be relatively small, which is a great advantage.
