20080270753 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD THEREOF - In a case that a precedent queue to supply data to be processed does not include data to be processed, a processor D switches its operation mode to an auxiliary mode to perform a part of processing assigned to a processor A, and issues a request for execution of the part of the processing assigned to the processor A, to the processor A. In response to the request, the processor A notifies the processor D of information to cause the processor D to perform the part of the processing assigned to the processor A, and the processor D performs the part of the processing assigned to the processor A in accordance with the notified information. | 10-30-2008 |
20080291283 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - In an image processing apparatus which generates an input signal when a mobile information terminal contacts a display surface and makes a wireless communication with the contacting mobile information terminal, it is difficult to make an appropriate display by discriminating whether a contact object is a mobile information terminal or a user's finger. To accomplish this, when a mobile information terminal ( | 11-27-2008 |
20090279131 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - Conventionally, pixel data are converted into the tile sequence. According to this invention, span information or run-length information during conversion into pixel data from vector data such as a display list converted from a page description language is converted into the tile sequence before rendering into pixel data. This can greatly reduce the amount of data temporarily stored for conversion into the tile sequence. | 11-12-2009 |
20100003047 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS AND POST-PROCESSING APPARATUS - An image forming apparatus capable of ensuring security of discharged printouts and preventing noise made by the operation of the image forming apparatus from becoming obtrusive to a user. The post-processing apparatus switches the operation mode of post processing to one of a normal operation mode and a quiet operation mode, and opens and closes a sealing door. Current limiting circuits switch the operation mode to the quiet operation mode before sealing of the door is released by a sealing drive circuit in response to an instruction from the user. | 01-07-2010 |
20100020345 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, IMAGE FORMING SYSTEM, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A method is provided for controlling an image forming apparatus provided in a room managed by a management apparatus capable of managing an entry or exit state of a participant who attends a conference and configured to process a print job received from a client computer. The method includes determining whether the room is used by a participant of a conference relating to the print job transmitted from the client computer, outputting the print job in a case where it is determined that the room is used by the participant of the conference relating to the print job, and restricting an output of the print job in a case where it is determined that the room is not used by the participant of the conference relating to the print job. | 01-28-2010 |
20110158531 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - An image processing apparatus divides inputted image data into blocks of a predetermined size, applies a plurality of image processes to each block, and determines whether a block includes image data with an attribute of not executing predetermined image processes. As a result of the determination, the predetermined image processes are not applied to the block if it is determined that the block includes the image data with the attribute of not executing the predetermined image processes. However, the predetermined image processes are applied to the block if it is determined that the block does not include the image data with the attribute of not executing the predetermined image processes. The image data with the attribute of not executing the predetermined image processes is vector image data, and the predetermined image processes are rendering, resolution conversion, and image compression. | 06-30-2011 |
20130155426 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD THEREFOR, AND PROGRAM - A image processing apparatus of the present invention comprises an image generation unit configured to generate image data of one page, a printing unit configured to mount color material on an intermediate transfer member to perform printing, and an obtaining unit configured to obtain a time (a time between print pages) showing a time interval between printing one page and printing next one page by the printing unit, and the printing unit outputs patches for adjusting density to be reproduced in the printing, to the intermediate transfer member in the time between print pages. | 06-20-2013 |
20140071463 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - To accomplish this, when an image processing apparatus determines with reference to a parameter associated with the image processing apparatus that allocations of storage capacities to a first storage unit which stores block images obtained by dividing image data in a page unit and a second storage unit which stores tile images obtained by dividing each block image are required to be changed, the apparatus changes the allocations of the storage capacities in correspondence with the parameter, and also changes division sizes of the block images and the tile images in accordance with the changes in storage capacities. | 03-13-2014 |
