Multiple correction test patterns are recorded using ejecting ports in part of the recording head, and correction data for correcting an image corresponding to ejecting ports in the entire area of the recording head on the basis of the colorimetric result of the test patterns. In this way, image data to be recorded by the ejecting ports in the entire area of the recording head is corrected. | 05-10-2012 |

20140055518 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, PRINTING APPARATUS, AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD - Provided are an image processing apparatus and an image processing method capable of reducing color unevenness due to variations in ejection characteristics among a plurality of nozzles when printing an image using a plurality of inks. To that end, a first image which is made up a color with noticeable color unevenness and similar colors is printed onto a print medium. The user then specifies a color and a nozzle position where color unevenness has occurred. On the basis of these results, parameters are set for a correction table referenced by an MCS processor. In so doing, it becomes possible to address the factor causing the color unevenness, and mitigate the effects of color unevenness in a focused way without incurring increases in processor load, memory requirements, or processing time as compared to the case of calibrating all lattice points. | 02-27-2014 |
20140139852 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, PRINTING APPARATUS, AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD - As viewed for each processing unit in HS processing, a processing unit width is more than 1 pixel, so that threshold arrangement corresponding to a target quality of an image intended by a dither matrix is kept while a possibility of avoiding the zero number of dots from being generated can be enhanced. Moreover, the threshold arrangement is kept while a possibility of generating the same number of dots in processing units can be enhanced. Consequently, the threshold arrangement corresponding to a predetermined target quality of an image intended by a dither matrix is kept while it is possible to reduce occurrence of an uneven density caused by the HS processing. Thus, it is possible to prevent the threshold arrangement from being limited by the HS according to the degree of the reduction. | 05-22-2014 |
20140139853 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, PRINTING APPARATUS, AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD - When an input image is shifted by 640 pixels from a test pattern with reference to the position of a nozzle, the remainder is obtained by dividing 640 pixels by pixels of the dither matrix in an x direction. For example, when the size of the dither matrix in the x direction is 256 pixels, the dither matrix is shifted by 128 pixels in a direction reverse to the x direction. In this manner, the phase of the dither matrix at the time of the quantization during test pattern printing matches the phase of the dither matrix at the time of the quantization during input image printing. Consequently, unevenness of the dither matrix at a position N becomes the same in both of the test pattern and the input image. The HS correction to density unevenness caused by the unevenness of the dither matrix becomes suitable for the input image. | 05-22-2014 |
20140139854 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, PRINTING APPARATUS, AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD - Nozzles in a print head are arrayed in a density of 600 dpi. Moreover, a dither matrix has a size of 16 pixels×16 pixels in 600 dpi. The dither matrix is repeatedly used. In the meantime, each of rectangles represents an HS processing unit. WHS=3 pixels. As a consequence, the relationship of a least common multiple below is established in a nozzle array direction: 3×WD=16×WHS. In this case, the cycle of interference unevenness can be prolonged to the least common multiple between WD and WHS, that is, 48 pixels (3WD). In this manner, the size of the dither matrix is not an integral multiple of the HS processing unit width, so that the cycle of interference unevenness can be prolonged more than the size of the dither matrix. Thus, the interference unevenness can be hardly recognized. | 05-22-2014 |
20140139855 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, PRINTING APPARATUS, AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD - One dither mask having a highest spacial frequency is selected from a plurality of dither masks. Next, a granularity is obtained with reference to a table based on the selected dither mask and an ejection amount level per area. Moreover, a difference in granularity between adjacent areas is calculated with respect to all of the areas. A maximum value is obtained out of the obtained differences in granularity, and then, the maximum difference in granularity is compared with a determination threshold. When the maximum difference in granularity is the threshold or greater, it is determined whether or not a dither mask having a spacial frequency lower than that of the selected dither mask is stored in a memory. When there are dither masks having lower spacial frequencies, a dither mask having a spacial frequency lower by one level than that of the selected dither mask is selected. | 05-22-2014 |
20140139885 | DITHER PATTERN FORMING METHOD AND DITHER PATTERN - In order to print a unit area of a print medium by a first printing scan and a second printing scan, dither patterns are formed which can control the arrangement of dots on the print medium without adverse effects of density unevenness and graininess, that are caused by printing position displacement. Regarding first and second dither patterns, information indicating whether or not a threshold is already set to a reference pixel and one or more pixels around the reference pixel in the first dither pattern is obtained for cases where each pixel in the first dither pattern is the reference pixel. A pixel in the second dither pattern to which a predetermined pixel is to be set is determined based on the obtained information. The first and second dither patterns formed in the above manner are associated with the first printing scan and the second printing scan, respectively. | 05-22-2014 |
20140184676 | DATA PROCESSING APPARATUS AND DATA PROCESSING METHOD - The present invention reduces an uneven color of a color having two or more colors of inks, the uneven color occurring due to manufacturing variations of ink ejection nozzles and so on. Each of a plurality of correction tables that is assigned to each predetermined number of nozzles that are used for printing on a common region in the print medium, of a plurality of nozzle arrays formed on a print head, each of the nozzle arrays ejecting a plurality of inks including a first ink and a second ink whose color is different from the color of the first ink, is generated on the basis of at least an ink ejection property of nozzles ejecting the first and second inks. | 07-03-2014 |
20140198354 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, LUMINANCE CORRECTION METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM - A frequency distribution of luminances is acquired from an image data acquired by optically reading a document. A frequency distribution of luminances of a background of the document is generated using the maximum frequency of the acquired frequency distribution as the maximum frequency of the frequency distribution of the luminances of the background of the document. A difference between the generated frequency distribution of the luminances of the background of the document and the acquired frequency distribution of the luminances is acquired, and the frequency distribution of the luminances of the background of the document is corrected based on the acquired difference. | 07-17-2014 |
20140218753 | IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD AND IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS - In low-resolution processing (reduction processing) in which input image data is separated into character print data and image print data to generate print data of lower resolution than that of the input image data, if a plurality of pixels is simply reduction-processed to one pixel, color of a color image surrounding a character may change. In an image processing method, calculation for performing reduction processing so that the plurality of pixels in the input image data corresponds to one pixel in the print data is performed as follows. A ratio of using a pixel value of a character attribute pixel in the calculation is set to 0, or set smaller than a ratio of using a pixel value of an image attribute pixel. As a result, a change in the color of the color image surrounding the character can be prevented. | 08-07-2014 |
20150022580 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD - Because the ejection state of a printing element in a printing apparatus may vary at all times, an inspection item for inspecting a printed image may be set in consideration of the ejection state of the printing element. An inspection item for inspecting a printed image may be set based on information including a temperature characteristic of a printing head and a state of ink such as an elapsed time from the last ejection. This allows image inspection that matches with variations in the ejection state of the printing element. | 01-22-2015 |
