Abstract: An image processing device accepts an input from a user via a UI screen displayed on a display unit and includes a control unit. The control unit accepts, via the UI screen, selection of an area of at least one image layer representing an image and included in a print job. The area is selected from among the entire area of the at least one image layer, an image area that is included in the at least one image layer and corresponds to the image, and a non-image area that is included in the at least one image layer and does not correspond to the image. The control unit generates a spot-color image layer having a recorded amount of a spot color specified for the area corresponding to the accepted selection and adds the spot-color image layer to the print job.

Abstract: Problems may be caused by incompatibility between a print job and print settings. An image processing device controls displaying content by a display, and has a controller configured to determine whether or not a print job containing multiple image layers is compatible with a print setting, and displays an error report on the display when the print job and print setting are not compatible. The controller displays a first input field to receive a number of image layers as part of the print setting, and displays the error report when the number of image layers set according to an operation on the first input field is not compatible with the number of image layers contained in the print job.

Abstract: Displaying a preview image is improved. An image processing device that displays on a display a preview image of printing a print job has a controller configured that acquires the printing order of multiple image layers included in the print job, generates a preview image overlaying the multiple image layers according to the acquired printing order, and displays the generated preview image on the display. The controller displays on the display an input field for receiving an instruction specifying the printing order of the multiple image layers, and acquires the printing order by receiving the instruction through the input field.
