Summary:This application discloses a print control device suppressing paper waste without reducing the size of a print sheet that is to form a section upon printing for bookbinding. In one configuration example of the print control device, the numbers Np1 and Np2 of first and second print sheets to be used, which correspond to two pieces of imposition information Dfly1 and Dfly2 prepared for manuscript data Dd for a single print job, are determined so as not to waste paper, on the basis of the numbers of pages imposed on the first and second print sheets and a total page number Npg in the manuscript data Dd. On the basis of the determined numbers Np1 and Np2 and the two pieces of imposition information Dfly1 and Dfly2, overall imposition for the manuscript data Dd is determined such that, of the first and second print sheets, the shorter print sheets are sandwiched between the longer print sheets.
