Abstract

PURPOSE:To make an operator recognize an operating state of a printing device by providing two graphic command counters, comparing and calculating the output values from these counters, and displaying them as occasion calls. CONSTITUTION:A graphic command is sent to an interface processor 2 from a host device 1, and by the first graphic command counter, the number of graphic commands of one page portion is counted. A graphic picture-drawing processor 3 develops one graphic command to a dot image, and sends a signal to the second graphic command counter 6, whenever a picture is drawn to a video memory 4. By its signal, the counter 6 is brought to decrement from the number of commands sent from a counter 5 in advance. A comparing arithmetic part 7 compares and calculates percentage of a graphic command processing of one page portion as occasion calls, based on a value which is sent from the counter 5 and the counter 6, and its result is displayed by a display panel 8.

The device includes a first graphic command counter that counts the number of graphic commands for one page, and a second graphic command counter that decrements from the number of graphic commands for one page each time the graphic command is analyzed and drawn.
A graphic command processing situation characterized by having a graphic command counter, a comparison calculation section that performs a comparison operation on the value of (bud x 100) based on the values of these two counters, and a display that displays the calculation result. It is a display device.

At the same time, the first graphic command counter 5 counts the number N of graphic commands for one page. When a graphics command for drawing a figure for one page is stored in the main memory 9, the interface processor 2 expands the graphics command into a dot image and sends it to the graphics drawing processor 3, which has the function of drawing it in the video memory 4. send. The graphic drawing processor 3 develops one graphic command into a dot image, and sends a signal to the second graphic command counter 6 every time it is drawn in the video memory 4. Decrement from the number N of graphic commands sent (N-1, N-2, -N-n).
