摘要:
This invention provides an image processing method which allows easy re-use of image information that is stored to minimize deterioration of image quality and the storage capacity. Storage means is searched for original digital data corresponding to each input image. If no original digital data is found, the input image is converted into vector data, and is stored as digital data in the storage means. A sheet including at least one of information associated with the found original digital data when the original digital data is found in the search step and information associated with digital data which is obtained by converting the image into the vector data in the vectorization step and is stored in the storage step when no original digital data is found in the search step is generated, thus providing a sheet that allows easy re-use.

Image data scanned by way of a scanner controller is transferred from a memory controller to a memory by way of a G bus. A CPU reduces the image data stored in the memory by thinning processing or the like, and displays the image data on an operation panel by way of a B bus and interface. In this manner, an image can be input using the first bus while data transferred by way of the first bus is output by way of the second bus. This enables processing using image data which is being input, such as processing of immediately displaying an input image.

A method to enhance the copy or printout efficiency and decrease the number of output jobs that are abandoned because of undesirable outputs. Abort of output due to absence of sheets or staples, overload of a delivery tray, or the like is predicted. If output abort is determined, data is removed from an output queue and re-registered as an output reserve job at the end of the queue.

In order to manage the amount of power consumed by executing a plurality of jobs in parallel to a proper level, when a job start key is pressed, whether power consumption exceeds a predetermined value is determined. If the power consumption does not exceed the predetermined value, the job is executed; otherwise, the job is not executed, and the processing waits for a next instruction.

In an image processing apparatus worth multiple functions, there is provided a method of controlling the function of a peripheral equipment, such as for image filing, facsimile an image printing function, by the control unit of the image processing apparatus. The control program and display data, relating to the image processing function of such peripheral equipment are transferred to, and stored in the composite image processing apparatus, and in response to the selection of such image processing function, the control of the operation unit of the apparatus is switched to a control mode based on the transferred program and display data.

This invention provides the following environment. That is, an original document file corresponding to a document to be copied is specified from image data of that document to be copied, and a print process is made based on the specified file so as to prevent deterioration of image quality. Also, when a document to be copied is not registered, a registration process is executed to suppress deterioration of image quality in an early stage. Furthermore, since the document is converted into vector data, re-use of such document is facilitated, and deterioration of image quality can be suppressed even when an image process such as enlargement or the like is made. To this end, when an original digital file cannot be specified, an apparatus of this embodiment executes a vectorization process (S54), converts the obtained vector data into a data format that can be re-used by an application (S55), and registers the converted file in a file server (S56). With this registration process, since the location of the file is settled, that location information is composited on an image to be scanned using an identifier such as a two-dimensional barcode or the like (S48), and the composite image can be printed (S49). Even when the printed document is scanned again, a registered digital file can be easily specified.
摘要:
An image formation apparatus obtains optimum double-face print output results aligned in a binding direction even if plural recording sheet sizes mixedly exist in one document. To do so, a CPU of a formatter unit judges consistency between image formation directions on different-size recording sheets on the basis of a designation state of a short edge binding double-face mode or a long edge binding double-face mode designated to a print job by a PC/WS and a designation state of the recording sheet size independently designated to each page of the print job, and it is then controlled based on the judged result that double-face image formation to the recording sheet of either of the designated sizes is performed based on the other double-face mode than the double-face mode actually designated to the print job.

摘要:
An image forming apparatus includes a memory which stores one or more images as one document, and an image forming unit which forms on a sheet the image of the document stored in the memory. Also included is a controller which causes the image forming unit to perform the image forming of the plural documents stored in the memory, as one document. The image forming unit includes a binder for binding the sheets on which the images of the plural documents are respectively formed, as one sheaf.
