摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an information processing apparatus, an image forming apparatus, a printing system, etc., which can reduce loads of a network for transmitting/receiving print data and those of respective apparatuses. PSOLUTION: A print data storing part 210 stores first data that can be printed by a printing means or can generate print data to be printed by the printing means and include replaceable data. A map information database 220 stores data identification information for identifying the data included in the first data and a position of the data in the first data in association with each other. An operation display control part 203 acquires the data identification information and replacement data for replacing the data. A print data generation part 204 generates second data in which the data included in the first data stored in the print data storage part 210 are replaced with the replacement data on the position of the data corresponding to the data identification information stored in the map information database 220.
