A printer generates intermediate data that is a multivalued image based on image data to be printed, and converts the generated intermediate data into two gray scales by dither processing or the like to generate a binarized image. Further, the printer causes a printing device to execute printing based on the generated binarized image. The printer detects character data from the image data before generating the intermediate data, adds a broken line to an edge of the character represented by the character data when a size of the character represented by the detected character data is a predetermined size or more, and generates intermediate data based on the character to which the broken line is added. The printer does not add a broken line when the size of the character represented by the character data is less than the predetermined size.
