    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a drum, an optical scanning mechanism, a development mechanism, an intermediate transfer member, movement detecting mechanisms, and a controller. The optical scanning mechanism deflects a laser light beam to form a latent image on a photosensitive surface of the drum. The development mechanism contains a plurality of different color toners and develops the latent image into a color toner image. The intermediate transfer member is rotated in synchronism with a rotation of the drum and receives the color toner image multiple times to form thereon a composite color toner image including multiple images of the different color toners overlaying one to another. The movement detecting mechanisms detect respective movements of the drum and the intermediate transfer belt. The controller controls respective rotations of the drum and the intermediate transfer belt with results of respective detection performed by the plurality of movement detecting mechanisms.

    Abstract: An image reading apparatus prevents degradation of image quality and a delay in the image reading time which are caused by interruption of reading of image data. A speed at which a host computer reads image data from an image reading apparatus and temporarily stores it therein is examined. If the resulting speed is lower than a reference value which has been set so that an operation to avoid an overflow of a buffer RAM in the image reading apparatus may not be caused, the sub-scanning speed of the image reading apparatus is set lower, and the image is read at the lower speed.

    Abstract: 1,168,111. Electric synchronizing. INSTITUTE FOR SCIENTIFIC INFORMATION. 19 Jan., 1967 [21 March, 1966], No. 2846/67. Heading H2L. [Also in Division H4] A document to be copied is scanned linewise by a photo-electric strip element 30, Fig. 1, which is moved down the document by hand to introduce the other component of scan, the resulting electric signals being applied to a xerographic recorder 14 in which the recording strip 50 is caused to move in synchronism with the movements imparted to element 30. A rotatable apertured drum is mounted on the side of the housing for element 30 so as to engage the document and co-operates with a lamp (not shown) and a photo-cell 82 to generate pulses representing by their number the distance moved. The recording strip is moved by a motor 66 whilst a similar drum and photo-cell assembly 92, 98 produces pulses representing the strip movement. The pulses from photo-cell 82 drive an up-down bit counter 88, Fig. 2, in one direction, whilst the pulses from photo-cell 98 drive the counter in the reverse direction back to zero. Departure of the count from zero is detected by threshold logic 90 which controls motor 66. The photo. electric element comprises a known assembly of a photo-sensitive strip and a linear array of biased diodes. The arrangement is controlled by a ramp or staircase generator 34 which brings the diodes into conduction in sequence thereby simultating a line scan. The line scan in the xerographic recorder is effected by an electrode wheel assembly 44 which rotates in a direction transverse the direction of movement of strip 50. Each electrode is in the form of a spoke which terminates at the wheel rim and co-operates with an earthed plate 42 to lay down charges on the strip. Signals are applied to the electrodes via brush 38 bearing on the wheel hub. Commencement of line scan by the operative electrode is detected by a photo-cell 122 when the spoke interrupts the light beam from lamp 118. The photo-cell triggers generator 34 by way of a NOR gate 116 which is controlled as shown in Fig. 2, by a signal from a NAND gate 112 which in turn receives signals from flip-flops 110 and 114 triggered at each pulse from photo-cells 82 and 98. The circuit operates to synchronize the line scan in photo-electric element 30 to the recording electrode scan such that one scan only is made in response to each incremental movement which gives rise to a pulse from photo-cell 82. The recording is developed in known manner by apparatus 52. Photo-electric element 30 is exposed to the document through a slit 81, the housing having also an opening so that the user may see what is being copied.

    Abstract: A scanning device includes a scanning mechanism, a memory, a processing mechanism, and a scan rate adjustment mechanism. The scanning mechanism scans a media sheet having an image thereon at a variable scan rate, to yield raw data. The memory temporarily stores the raw data. The processing mechanism converts the raw data within the memory into processed data. The raw data is removed from the memory as the raw data is converted. The scan rate adjustment mechanism adjusts the variable scan rate, based on one or more of an amount of free space within the memory, a fill rate at which the raw data is filling the memory, and a removal rate at which the raw data is being removed from the memory, so that the memory does not become completely full.

    Abstract: In an image reading apparatus, a retreat control device moves a conveyance target through a conveyance mechanism, when a stop operation is performed by a stop control device, in an opposite direction to an image reading direction to a position further from a restart reference position set by a position setting unit. A reading control device again moves the conveyance target, which has been moved by the retreat control device, at a constant speed in the image reading direction under a predetermined condition; inputs a line start signal to a reading unit when an offset time set by a time setting unit has elapsed from a time point when the conveyance target reaches the restart reference position; and periodically inputs a line start signal to thereby cause the reading unit to perform a reading operation from a point; where the reading unit is located when the offset time has elapsed.

    Abstract: In a multibeam scanner, the resolution switching circuit 91 of the control unit 9 transmits a control signal to the motor drive circuit 92 and controls the motor drive circuit 92 to rotate the drive motor 78 at a velocity corresponding to the resolution. The resolution switching circuit 91 transmits a resolution signal to the image generation circuit 93 and controls the image generated circuit 93 to generate output image data that conforms to the resolution. The LD1 control circuit 95 and the LD2 control circuit 96 are modulated by the modulation circuit 94 to oscillate the laser diodes LD1 and LD2 based on the output image data. When performing exposure at a low resolution, the rearmost scanning line SL2 in the previous group of lines and the forwardmost scanning line SL1 in the following group of scanning lines are exposed according to the same image signal, thereby preventing a loss of image quality by preventing open areas of the interval I2 between scanning lines from becoming noticeable.
