20100321743 | CODING METHOD, RECORDING METHOD, AND RECORDING APPARATUS - A method for coding mask data containing information indicating, for each pixel, presence of thinning of image data in order to perform multipass recoding for a predetermined area of a recording medium by N (N: integer of 2 or more) times, includes acquiring a plurality of mask data, assigning a code represented by a number of bits smaller than N based on information contained in the same address of the acquired mask data and use-order of the mask data, and generating coded data containing the assigned code corresponding to an arrangement of the address that the mask data retains information thereof. | 12-23-2010 |
20110116137 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND LOOKUP TABLE GENERATION METHOD - Using a first lookup table used to convert color data on a device-independent color space into color data on a device-dependent color space, and a second lookup table used to convert the color data on the device-dependent color space into color material data corresponding to a plurality of color print materials, the image processing apparatus acquires output values using the first lookup table in accordance with input values the number of which is larger than the number of grid points of the first lookup table, acquires output values using the second lookup table, as input values, the output values acquired, and generates a third lookup table corresponding to the predetermined number of input values which is larger than the number of grid points of the first lookup table in accordance with the output values acquired. | 05-19-2011 |
20120044526 | PRINTING APPARATUS AND PROCESSING METHOD FOR THE SAME - A printing apparatus encodes masks used for thinning out print data when performing multi-pass printing and provided in correspondence with passes, and stores the encoded masks in a memory. The printing apparatus includes an assignment unit that assigns different codes with respect to pixels that indicate dot-on and are held in the masks provided in correspondence with the passes, depending on for which pass of mask processing the masks are used, and an encoding unit that generates, using the different codes, index data indicating pixels that indicate dot-on and are held in the masks corresponding to the passes, and generates encoded data by encoding the index data. Here, the encoding unit determines an assignment relationship in which the different codes are assigned to the passes by the assignment unit such that the encoded data is smaller than the data size of original masks, and generates the encoded data. | 02-23-2012 |
20120281243 | DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM AND DATA PROCESSING METHOD - The present invention has an objective of providing an image formation apparatus that can output binary image data on a printing medium with a favorable quality. According to the present invention, a plurality of different pieces of mask data stored in a storage unit is used to generate a plurality of different pieces of divided data. Then, the frequency characteristic information of the respective plurality of generated thinned images is calculated. Thereafter, the pieces of frequency characteristic information of the respective plurality of generated thinned images are compared to select, from among the plurality of pieces of mask data stored in the storage unit, a divided mask pattern to be used for the input image data. Then, the selected divided mask pattern is used to form the image. | 11-08-2012 |
