In a printer that can print different contents substantially simultaneously on a set of print recording media on a plurality of sheets ,
A print request issuing unit that generates print image data based on the received print data and issues a print request;
Storage means for storing the print request;
A printing unit that performs printing on a print recording medium based on a print request stored in the storage unit;
First paper feeding means for feeding the set of print recording media to the printing means;
A second paper feeder for reversing the set of print recording media on which one surface has been printed by the printing unit and feeding the printing medium again to the printing unit;
By rearranging the print requests stored in the storage unit in a predetermined order, a new print recording medium is continuously fed from the first paper supply unit by a predetermined number at a time, and one side is printed. Then, one side fed from the second paper supply means is printed, and the other side of a set of printed recording media, and a new set fed from the first paper supply means. And alternately printing one side of the print recording medium on the other side, and further continuously feeding a set of the print recording medium having the one side printed from the second paper supply means by the predetermined number. Control means for printing the surface of the
When a failure occurs in re-feeding a set of print recording media from the second paper supply unit, the control unit changes the processing state of the print request according to the occurrence state of the failure. A printer characterized in that:

In a printing method capable of substantially simultaneously printing different contents on a set of print recording media on multiple sheets ,
Generating print image data based on the received print data and issuing a print request;
Storing the print request;
Rearranging the stored print requests in a predetermined order;
Continuously feeding a predetermined number of new print recording media one set at a time to print one side;
Alternately printing the other side of a set of print recording media on which one side is printed and one side of a new set of print recording media;
A step of continuously feeding a set of print recording media on one side of which is printed by the predetermined number and printing the other side,
Detecting whether one side has failed in re-feeding a set of printed print media,
A printing method, comprising: when the failure is detected, changing a processing state of the print request according to a state of occurrence of the failure.
