    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes a feeding unit to supply a sheet, an acquiring unit, a fixing unit, a printing unit, a determining unit, and a comparing unit. The acquiring unit acquires, as a number, a remaining amount of sheets existing in the feeding unit. The fixing unit fixes a number of sheets required for a printing process per a certain unit for an accepted print job. The printing unit performs the printing process for the print job. The determining unit determines whether a restriction is imposed on interruption of the printing process for the print job. If, in comparing the remaining amount of sheets with the required number of sheets, the comparing unit determines that the remaining amount of sheets is greater than or equal to the required number of sheets, the printing unit starts the printing process for the print job regardless of whether the restriction is imposed.

    摘要: A time period required for printing can be reduced by responding to the change of a print setting after inputting of a job and by optimizing a data processing sequence until completion of a job. An apparatus for performing data processing for a print job, the apparatus including a control unit configured to control data processing in accordance with a number-of-copies setting of the print job. The data processing includes: first data processing in which predetermined image processing is performed on first image data included in the print job to generate second image data and the generated second image data is printed without spooling; and second data processing in which predetermined image processing is performed on first image data included in the print job to generate second image data, the generated second image data is spooled, and the spooled second image data is repeatedly used for printing. In a case where a change of the number-of-copies setting is accepted during job execution by the first data processing, the control unit switches from the first data processing to the second data processing in response to the remaining number of copies.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes an image forming device to form an image on a sheet, and an image reading device to read an image from the sheet. A processing unit causes the image forming device to perform a predetermined image formation to form a first image for position correction of an output image and a second image for tone correction. A value of the position correction is obtained, based on a read image, and a tone correction value is obtained based on a read image from a second image sheet.

    摘要: An image forming system cyclically conveys an Nth sheet with an image formed on a first side to an image forming unit as a sheet subject to image formation after image formation on a subsequent (N+i)th sheet, and form an image on a second side of the Nth sheet. The system includes an obtaining unit that, during image forming processes, obtains respective updated adjustment values for the first and second sides, and a control unit that performs control to simultaneously store the updated adjustment value for the first side and an unupdated adjustment value for the second side in a part of a period of the processes, form an image on the first side of the (N+i)th sheet using the updated one for the first side, and form the image on the second side of the Nth sheet using the unupdated one for the second side.

    摘要: An information processing apparatus configured to notify information on processing in a notification method different depending on whether the processing to be executed by a processing unit is one executed in response to a request from a web application accessed by the apparatus. The information processing apparatus registers identification information for the web application accessed by the apparatus, and determines whether a job to be executed by the apparatus is one requested by a web application corresponding to any of registered identification information. When it is determined that the job is one requested by a web application corresponding to any of the registered identification information, the progress of the job is displayed in detail. When it is determined that the job is not one requested by a web application corresponding to any of the registered identification information, the progress of the job is briefly displayed or is not displayed.
