The determination unit determines whether at least one of an impositioned appearance indicating an arrangement of logical pages in respective physical pages of the impositioned print data, and a print output attribute, which is an attribute of an output of the impositioned print data, satisfies a division condition set in advance. If the determining unit determines that the impositioned appearance or the print output attribute satisfies the division condition, the division unit divides the impositioned print data in logical-page unit. The rearrangement unit rearranges divided logical pages in an order according to the impositioned appearance. If neither the impositioned appearance nor the print output attribute satisfies the division condition, the impositioned print data is prevented from being divided in logical-page unit.

The PDL processor determines whether the sheet type of the page is needleless binding executable. The PDL processor replaces a sheet type which is determined to be needleless binding unexecutable, with a sheet type which is needleless binding executable. A post-processing apparatus performs needleless binding on the bundle of printed sheets in which any needleless binding unexecutable sheet is replaced with a sheet of the needleless binding executable type.
