Abstract:
According to an embodiment of the present invention, an image processing apparatus capable of properly controlling sharpness of an output image and outputting the image is provided. More specifically, the image processing apparatus comprises: a setting unit configured to set an image processing condition for performing image processing to image data of an input photographic image based on an output characteristic of an output apparatus that influences sharpness of an image output from the output apparatus; an obtaining unit configured to obtain information equivalent to a distance from a focal plane in the photographic image; and an image processing unit configured to perform image processing to the image data based on the information obtained by the obtaining unit and the image processing condition set by the setting unit.
Abstract:
A color gamut for each printing mode is maximally used, a color separation table is used, which includes an area (color reproduction maintaining area) for which an image having a color difference of a predetermined value or less between printing modes in a case where the same input value is input is output and an area (area other than the color reproduction maintaining area) for which an image having a color difference of a predetermined value or more between the printing modes in a case where the same input value is input is output. From this, a color matching table can be shared between the printing modes.

Abstract:
An image recording apparatus according to this invention analyzes image data to be printed, and generates sequence information for defining the moving range of each scanning motion of a recording head and the conveyance amount of a recording medium. The apparatus divides a recording area defined by the generated sequence information into areas so that the processing amounts of a plurality of processing units capable of parallelly executing processes are equal to each other, distributes data of the divided areas to the processing units, and causes each of the processing units to generate recording image data. The apparatus performs recording by controlling driving and a scanning motion of the recording head and conveyance of the recording medium based on the recording image data obtained by the processing units.
