20100284039 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND INFORMATION MANAGING METHOD AND PROGRAM - In a copying apparatus, a storage capacity of an HDD which is used in a unique file system can be changed. In a partition area for image data formatted by a general-purpose file system, an area for a virtual unique high speed file system is provided and a reservation file having a data structure which can be used by the unique file system is constructed. A unique high speed file system accesses such an area, thereby enabling functions of the unique high speed file system to be virtually used and enabling information management of the image data to be made. | 11-11-2010 |
20110007359 | PRINT CONTROL APPARATUS AND PRINT CONTROL METHOD - An external controller predicts and calculates a toner consumption amount of each page before printing by using image data after development. The consumption amount is predicted in consideration of an image process in a printer and a designation of a variable print. | 01-13-2011 |
20110158727 | PRINTING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD FOR PRINTING APPARATUS - A control method for controlling a printing apparatus includes printing an image on a sheet by a printing unit, changing a sheet discharge position of the sheet printed by the printing unit, controlling the printing unit to execute a printing operation to continuously print an image of each page contained in image data of a plurality of pages on sheets in turn by a specified number of copies, changing the sheet discharge position after the printing operation is executed, and controlling the printing unit to execute the printing operation after the sheet discharge position is changed and then to discharge the sheets printed by the printing operation to the changed sheet discharge position. | 06-30-2011 |
20110317187 | CONTROL APPARATUS, CONTROLLING METHOD, PROGRAM AND RECORDING MEDIUM - A problem of the present invention is to provide a control apparatus, a controlling method, a program, and a recording medium which can print by using at least one or more special colors in addition to four colors of Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black. To solve the above problem, the control apparatus according to the present invention includes analyzing unit that provides command analysis for a CMYK plate and a clear toner plate, generating unit that generates image data of the CMYK plate based on a result of the command analysis by the analyzing unit, and embedding unit that embeds a clear toner attribute obtained by analyzing the clear toner plate in an attribute flag accompanying each of pixels of the image data of the CMYK plate, which is generated by the generating unit. | 12-29-2011 |
20130058738 | PRINTING APPARATUS AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME - A print job for ring binding is received and page information contained in the print job is acquired. Based on the page information, it is determined whether a sheet used as a back cover in the ring binding is a sequential insert sheet whose insertion order is determined in advance. When it is determined that the sheet used as the back cover is a sequential insert sheet, control is performed such that the insert sheet used as the back cover is printed by discharging insert sheets up to the insert sheet just before the insert sheet used as the back cover out of a set of sequential insert sheets. Then, sheets used as inner sheets in the ring binding and a sheet used as a front cover in the ring binding are printed in order. | 03-07-2013 |
20140036285 | CONTROL APPARATUS, CONTROLLING METHOD, PROGRAM AND RECORDING MEDIUM - A problem of the present invention is to provide a control apparatus, a controlling method, a program, and a recording medium which can print by using at least one or more special colors in addition to four colors of Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black. To solve the above problem, the control apparatus according to the present invention includes analyzing unit that provides command analysis for a CMYK plate and a clear toner plate, generating unit that generates image data of the CMYK plate based on a result of the command analysis by the analyzing unit, and embedding unit that embeds a clear toner attribute obtained by analyzing the clear toner plate in an attribute flag accompanying each of pixels of the image data of the CMYK plate, which is generated by the generating unit. | 02-06-2014 |
20140063526 | INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, IMAGE PROCESSING CONTROLLER, AND IMAGE PROCESSING CONTROLLER CONTROL METHOD - An information processing system includes a first information processing apparatus, and a second information processing apparatus. The second information processing apparatus periodically acquires information from the first information processing apparatus, and stops periodically acquiring information if there is a factor for shifting a power state of the first information processing apparatus into a power saving state. The second information processing apparatus transmits information to the first information processing apparatus in a case where periodically acquiring information from the first information processing apparatus is stopped. The first information processing apparatus shifts into the second power state if the information is received. | 03-06-2014 |
20150062611 | IMAGING FORMING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD OF IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - An image forming apparatus capable of receiving a raster image from an image processing controller includes: a transmitting unit transmitting device information of the image forming apparatus to an external device via the image processing controller; a determining unit determining whether the image processing controller is in a first power condition or in a second power condition consuming lower power than the first power condition; and a control unit allowing the transmitting unit to transmit the device information to the external device in a case where the determining unit determines that the image processing controller is in the first power condition, and in a case where the determining unit determines that the image processing controller is in the second power condition, restrict the transmitting unit to transmit the device information to the external device until the image processing controller returns to the first power condition from the second power condition. | 03-05-2015 |
20150062645 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS HAVING WEB BROWSER, METHOD OF CONTROLLING IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An image forming apparatus which makes a web page of peripheral equipment such as a print controller connected to the image forming apparatus available without the need to manually register the web page of the peripheral equipment as a favorite or the like in a web browser installed in the image forming apparatus. A determination unit determines whether the print controller is connected to the image forming apparatus via an interface. A generation unit generates a URL including an IP address or a host name of the print controller. A display unit displays an icon for accessing a web page corresponding to the URL in a case where the determination unit determines that the print controller is connected to the image forming apparatus. | 03-05-2015 |
