Abstract: An image reading apparatus that makes it possible to reduce the influences of dirt on a white reference chart itself, stripes caused by dust, and the like, and thereby generate accurate data for shading correction. An image processor performs shading correction on image data read by a reader unit. The read image data is compared with threshold values set for each pixel, and a pixel which is out of a range of the threshold values is determined as a singular point pixel. Data of a pixel determined as a singular point pixel is interpolated from data around the singular point pixel. Data of a pixel which is not determined as a singular point pixel is adopted as valid shading correction data. An operation controller controls the number of effective sampling lines from start to termination of sampling to be performed.

Abstract: A method is described for controlling a printhead including an array of light sources. An aim exposure function is provided which gives an aim exposure as a function of an integer pulse count. An initial pulse timing function is also provided which defines an exposure time as a function of pulse count. A light output function for the light sources is determined responsive to the pulse timing function, wherein the light output function gives a light output of the light sources as a function of exposure time. The pulse timing function is updated responsive to the light output function and the aim exposure function. The process is repeated until a predefined iteration termination criterion is satisfied. The determined pulse timing function is used to control the printhead, wherein each light source is activated for a pulse count corresponding to a pixel code value of an associated image pixel.

Abstract: A document printing system includes an image forming apparatus, a print-data generating unit, a charge calculator, and a payment code notification unit. The image forming apparatus includes a print device and a document accepting unit that accepts a document. The print-data generating unit generates print data of the document accepted by the document accepting unit. The charge calculator calculates a charge based on the document accepted by the document accepting unit. The payment code notification unit notifies a payment code issued by an online payment service to the charge calculated by the charge calculator. The image forming apparatus includes a document printing unit that executes a print job with the print device based on the print data when the charge has been paid via the online payment service using the payment code notified by the payment code notification unit.

Abstract: Provided is a device that prevents complicating the operation required to execute a desired process even when the screen changes and the GUI buttons to which the desired process is assigned is not displayed. A multifunction device 1 has a inside touch panel part 41 (touch panel); first to fourth inscribed buttons 23 to 26 (first buttons) outside a inside touch panel part 41; a display controller 61 that displays first to fourth GUI buttons 72 to 75 (second buttons) in the inside touch panel part 41 in the home screen 66 (first state), and does not display first to fourth GUI buttons 72 to 75 in the inside touch panel part 41 in a operating screen 67 (second state); a light emission controller 62 that does not illuminate the first to fourth inscribed buttons 23 to 26 in the first state, and illuminates the first to fourth inscribed buttons 23 to 26 in the second state; and a control module 2 that executes the same process whether the first to fourth inscribed buttons 23 to 26 or first to fourth GUI buttons 72 to 75 are operated.

Abstract: Devices and methods for managing print jobs on a printing device having a plurality of output media trays are disclosed. The method includes monitoring a print job in an active state, the print job is associated with a predetermined output media tray. The print job being switched from the active state to a held state is detected based on a status of at least one of a first set of printing resources, print input conditions, and print output conditions being negative for the print job. A new incoming print job received at the printing device is identified. A second set of printing resources, print input conditions, and print output conditions are determined for the new incoming print job. Finally, the printing device is triggered to print the new incoming print job for producing prints via an alternate output media tray while the print job is in the held state.

Abstract: A system may automatically scan a physical document and perform processing actions on the scanned document according to a workflow. The system may include a scanning device that can detect a trigger event when a portable memory device is connected to or paired with the device or when a document, including one or multiple pages, is placed on the document handler of the device. Upon detecting the trigger event, the scanning device may retrieve the workflow and associated instructions from one or more designated folders on the portable memory device, automatically scan the document on the document handler to a digital document file, and perform various processing actions on the digital document file according to the workflow, with little or no user interaction. The processing actions may include storing, faxing, and emailing the scanned document, and/or performing certain document conversion functions on the digital document file.
