    Abstract: In the image data processing of the digital copying machine (M), number of blocks Bn of image data in auxiliary scanning direction is set to the number of expanders (30, 31) Dn times a natural number N (N.times.Dn). This configuration makes it possible to utilize the (30, 31) expanders efficiently regardless of whether the image is to be rotated by 90.degree. or not when expanding compressed image data and printing the image. Thus such a situation that the expanders (30, 31) are forced to suspend the expanding operation does not occur, making it possible to start printing earlier and improve the printing speed. In the image reader 1 of the digital copying machine (M), when dividing image data corresponding to original document into a plurality of blocks and compressing the image data in the unit of block, length of the original document in the auxiliary scanning direction is estimated from width of the original document (size in principal scanning direction). Then by setting the partition of divided blocks based on the estimated document length, the image data can be compressed without waiting for the end of image data input for each block, not doing over the compression process even when the end of the original document is detected, thereby maximizing the image data compressing speed.

    Abstract translation: 在数字复印机(M)的图像数据处理中,辅助扫描方向上的图像数据的块数Bn被设置为自然数N(N×Dn)的扩展器(30,31)的数量Dn倍。 无论在扩展压缩图像数据和打印图像时是否要将图像旋转90°,这种配置使得可以有效地利用(30,31)扩展器。 因此,不会发生扩张器(30,31)被迫暂停膨胀操作的情况,从而可以更早地开始打印并提高打印速度。 在数字复印机(M)的图像读取器1中,当将与原稿对应的图像数据分割成多个块并以块为单位压缩图像数据时,估计原稿在辅助扫描方向上的长度 从原始文档的宽度(主扫描方向的大小)。 然后,通过基于所估计的文档长度来设定分割块的划分,可以压缩图像数据,而不用等待每个块输入的图像数据的结束,即使在检测到原始文档的结束时也不进行压缩处理 从而使图像数据压缩速度最大化。

    Abstract: An image forming apparatus has N-in-1 mode for forming an image of N documents in a sheet of paper and automatic color selection mode for deciding whether a document is a color document or a monochromatic one. When the N-in-1 mode and the automatic color selection mode are selected, color copy mode is selected if a number of color documents in N documents to be reproduced in a sheet of paper is larger than a predetermined reference value.

    Abstract: An image processing apparatus has an automatic document feeder for feeding one- and/or two-sided orginals, an image reader such as a CCD for reading images on the originals, an image determining unit for determining the presence or absence of an image on an original, a convey control unit for controlling convey of originals and recording media in accordance with the determination result of the image determining unit, a two-sided copy unit for producing two-sided copies and a sorter for storing the copies. Images of originals including one- and two-sided originals can be reproduced sequentially on both sides of recording media, without omitting an image on either side in accordance with determination results from the image determining unit. The image determining unit can determine the presence or absence of an image on one or more originals while the original is located at a reading position and prior to a copy being produced thereof.

    Abstract: A new variety of African violets that have been bred from a hybrid formed by crossing Saintpaulia ionantha, the traditional florists' African violet with the high altitude species, Saintpaulia schumensis. The high cost of energy in northern latitudes and the relatively high temperatures required by Saintpaulia ionantha, which grows naturally at the foot of Mount Usamabara in East Africa, have made commercial growing of the violet expensive. By bringing in genes from Saintpaulia schumensis which grows at some 7,000 feet on the same mountain, where temperatures can fall as low as 55 degrees Fahrenheit, a new avenue of growth is opened up for this popular plant.
