Abstract: A print controller includes a first print command unit, an output command unit, and a second print command unit. The first print command unit prints multiple page images onto multiple printing media in either one of a first sequence, in which the page images are printed starting from a leading page image toward a final page image, and a second sequence, in which the page images are printed starting from the final page image toward the leading page image. The output command unit gives a command for outputting the printing media to an output destination of a printing apparatus in a state where a printed face of each printing medium faces upward. The second print command unit gives a command for further printing the page images onto the printing media, which are fed to a feed destination of the printing apparatus while being kept in the upward-facing output state in the output destination, such that the printing is performed in the other one of the first sequence and the second sequence.
