20090141319 | IMAGE FORMING DEVICE, IMAGE FORMING METHOD AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM - The present invention relates to an image forming device that realizes accurate image forming positioning at a desired position without any complex operation about the image forming position by firmware in the image forming device that can involve the unevenness or mounting position difference of lenses of a deflection scanning device. The image forming device obtains the amount of shift in a subscanning direction of image forming from the image forming position of the image data in the main scanning direction and from the curve correction information, adds dummy data by the number of lines of shifting the reading position of the image data at the image forming start position in accordance with the amount of shift obtained, and delivers the dummy data added and the image data to an image forming component. | 06-04-2009 |
20090207430 | COLOR IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS AND COLOR IMAGE FORMING METHOD - A color image forming apparatus is provided that forms an image by correcting registration shifts during an image forming process by using image data and which prevents toner from being blown away and scattered during a fixing process by thinning pixels without making an erroneous decision. When multivalued color image is binarized, the threshold is corrected by using information on grayscale level correction. Further, when trailing phenomenon prevention operation is performed on the binarized image data, the patterns to be used for pattern matching are changed and selected according to whether the subscan direction line shifting point lies within the reference window. | 08-20-2009 |
20100123927 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An information processing apparatus for performing wireless communication with an image processing apparatus includes a specifying unit configured to designate, out of a plurality of directories stored in the information processing apparatus, an opened directory before performing wireless communication with the image processing apparatus, a receiving unit configured to receive image data from the image processing apparatus by performing the wireless communication, and a control unit configured to control the image data received by the receiving unit to be stored in the directory designated by the specifying unit. | 05-20-2010 |
20100290069 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A method for controlling an apparatus, including a plurality of lockable discharge units configured to discharge a printed product having an image formed thereon based on a received job to any one of the plurality of lockable discharge units, includes managing information about a lockable discharge unit to which the printed product is discharged in association with information about a user, notifying the user to prompt picking up the printed product discharged to the lockable discharge unit based on the managed information, and determining whether a particular user is using the plurality of lockable discharge units based on the managed information, wherein, in a case where the particular user is using the plurality of lockable discharge units, the notification is performed. | 11-18-2010 |
20110141519 | DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM, DATA PROCESSING APPARATUS, DATA PROCESSING METHOD, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - The present invention can intuitively perform processing such as printing relating to an application program that is opened by an information processing apparatus. Further, the present invention displays an image indicted by data, by a display unit of a data processing apparatus so that a user can easily confirm whether the data that is about to be processed by the data processing apparatus is the desired data. | 06-16-2011 |
20120096530 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS THAT PERFORMS AUTHENTICATION OF LOGIN FROM EXTERNAL APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An information processing apparatus that, even when a user forgets a user ID or the like in remotely logging in to the information processing apparatus from an external apparatus, permits login from the external apparatus insofar as another authentication means satisfies predetermined conditions. Authentication information input by the user when logging in is transmitted to a management server connected to a network, and a login authentication result for the user is received from the management server. Whether or not to permit login by the user from an external apparatus connected to the network is determined based on identification information on the external apparatus. Login by the user from the external apparatus is permitted when the received login authentication result is indicative of successful authentication, and the identification information on the external apparatus is included in the authentication result. | 04-19-2012 |
20120133968 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHODS FOR CONTROLLING THE APPARATUSES, AND STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM - An image processing apparatus displays a screen for designating cooperative processing in which the image processing apparatus and at least one other image processing apparatus cooperate based on externally received information, where if an execution instruction for processing to be executed by the image processing apparatus for the cooperative processing is received, the processing is executed. A screen displaying the status of processing in the at least one other image processing apparatus and a screen enabling designation of subsequent processing to be executed by the image processing apparatus are displayed based on the externally received screen information while the at least one other image processing apparatus is executing processing to be executed by the at least one other image processing apparatus for the cooperative processing after the execution of the processing. | 05-31-2012 |
20130003084 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS AND IMAGE FORMING METHOD - An image forming apparatus including a formation unit for forming patch images for calibration of an output image, a detection unit disposed on a paper conveyance path and configured to detect the fixed patch images formed on paper by the formation unit, and a correction unit for performing the calibration using the patch images detected by the detection unit is provided. When the formation unit forms the patch images, the formation unit arranges the images on both sides of a medium. On the front surface of the medium, a low-density patch image is formed, and on the back surface of the medium, a high-density patch image is formed. Alternatively, a media on which the patch image is formed is discharged once, and a user turns the medium upside down and feeds the medium again such that the first and second patch image formation positions differ from each other. | 01-03-2013 |
20140063528 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, AND CONTROL METHOD FOR IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - An image forming apparatus is provided that is capable of returning from a sleep state in response to detection of a user or upon receipt of an input, wherein notification of failure to detect a user is provided if the image forming apparatus returns from a sleep state based on receipt of an input for more than a predetermined number of times. | 03-06-2014 |
