The substitution operation includes executing shift discharge sheet operation which loads printed materials onto a stacker with a shift by units of printed materials to be partitioned, or supplying an partition for substitution from another sheet feed cassette in which partitions for substitution operation are stored, or supplying a sheet from another sheet feed cassette in which other sheets being different from the printed material used to printing of printed materials in at least one of size, type and color as an partition. | 06-04-2009 |
20090147316 | DEVICE OF CONNECTING DATA OF DOCUMENT AND METHOD OF CONNECTING SAME - An object of the present invention is for a user originally having authority to be capable of performing a copy operation without damaging convenience. In order to achieve the above object, a device according to the present invention comprises connecting unit for connecting data of a first document into which first certification information to be inputted for permitting a copy of the document is embedded to data of a second document into which second certification information to be inputted for permitting a copy of the document is embedded. | 06-11-2009 |
20090257760 | CONTROL APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A control apparatus which makes it possible to realize a configuration for processing a plurality of print jobs efficiently without waste while meeting needs for performing a glossing process on prints. When a sheet printed in a first process is fed from a sheet feeder, the printing apparatus executes a second printing process for processing the fed sheet. When an interrupting factor occurs during execution of the second printing process to cause interruption of the processing, the interrupted processing is resumed on condition that the interrupting factor is removed. A resuming method of resuming the processing is determined based on contents of the processing in the second process. | 10-15-2009 |
20090284783 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD AND CONTROL PROGRAM THEREFOR - There is provided an image forming apparatus that is connected to a plurality of other image forming apparatuses via a network, including a function presenting unit that presents required functions of a job to be transferred from the image forming apparatus a transfer destination candidate presenting unit that retrieves, from among the a plurality of other image forming apparatuses, an image forming apparatus that supports the required functions of the transferred job by comparing the required functions of the transferred job and a function supported by the other image forming apparatuses, and presents the retrieved apparatus and a transfer destination candidate re-presenting unit that presents another image forming apparatus that supports the remaining required functions when one or more of the required functions of the transferred job are de-selected. | 11-19-2009 |
20110082246 | PRESSURE-SENSITIVE ADHESIVE CONTAINING NEAR INFRARED ABSORBING COLORING MATTER - A pressure-sensitive adhesive containing a near infrared absorbing dye having excellent shielding function for near infrared rays and excellent in durability is provided. In a light resistance test, a layer of the pressure-sensitive adhesive having a thickness of 25±5 μm has an absorption intensity at the maximum absorption wavelength of the near infrared absorbing dye after a light resistance test of 50% or more of the absorption intensity before the test in which light with an irradiance of 64.5 W/m | 04-07-2011 |
20110317208 | PRINTING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - This invention provides a mechanism of preventing the stop of a print operation caused by a delay, from print processing, of processing of generating image data from print data. To accomplish this, a printing apparatus includes a receiving unit which receives print data containing a plurality of page sets for each of which different post-processing can be designated, and pages contained in the plurality of page sets, an analysis unit which analyzes a page contained in print data received by the receiving unit, and a print control unit which starts printing when the number of pages analyzed by the analysis unit is equal to or larger than a predetermined number, and restricts the start of printing when the number of pages analyzed by the analysis unit is smaller than the predetermined number. | 12-29-2011 |
20120261875 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD FOR THE SAME - An image forming apparatus is provided. Sheets, a plurality of which form a set, are contained in each of containers, and sheets are fed from the corresponding containers. If a first sheet to be fed is in the same layer as a second sheet that was fed from the containers last time, the first sheet is fed from a set that included the second sheet in the containers is fed. If the layer of the first sheet is higher than the layer of the second sheet that was fed from the containers last time, all remaining sheets in the set that included the second sheet are discharged from the containers. | 10-18-2012 |
20130057901 | CONTROL APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A control apparatus which makes it possible to realize a configuration for processing a plurality of print jobs efficiently without waste while meeting needs for performing a glossing process on prints. When a sheet printed in a first process is fed from a sheet feeder, the printing apparatus executes a second printing process for processing the fed sheet. When an interrupting factor occurs during execution of the second printing process to cause interruption of the processing, the interrupted processing is resumed on condition that the interrupting factor is removed. A resuming method of resuming the processing is determined based on contents of the processing in the second process. | 03-07-2013 |
20130088736 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, IMAGE FORMING METHOD AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM - An image forming apparatus which is connected to an external device and prints a PDL file managed in the external device, comprises: an acquisition unit that acquires a size of a file to be printed; a comparison unit that compares a size storable in a reception buffer of the image forming apparatus with the size of the file; and a network mount unit that mounts a folder of the external device containing the file, wherein the network mount unit mounts the folder of the external device containing the file in a case where the size of the file exceeds the size of the reception buffer, and does not mount the folder of the external device containing the file in a case where the size of the file does not exceed the size of the reception buffer. | 04-11-2013 |
20140110897 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD FOR THE SAME - An image forming apparatus is provided. Sheets, a plurality of which form a set, are contained in each of containers, and sheets are fed from the corresponding containers. If a first sheet to be fed is in the same layer as a second sheet that was fed from the containers last time, the first sheet is fed from a set that included the second sheet in the containers is fed. If the layer of the first sheet is higher than the layer of the second sheet that was fed from the containers last time, all remaining sheets in the set that included the second sheet are discharged from the containers. | 04-24-2014 |
20150050034 | PRINTING APPARATUS USING TECHNIQUE TO HANDLE ERROR IN FINISHER, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An image forming apparatus which uses a printing control technique for, even when a third-party finisher whose performance is unknown is connected to the image forming apparatus, realizing a sheet-feeding judgment with consideration given to the performance of the finisher and preventing degradation of working efficiency. When an error notification is received from a post-processing apparatus, a type of a sheet discharged to the post-processing apparatus is identified. The identified type is managed as a type of a prohibited sheet prohibited from being discharged to the post-processing apparatus. | 02-19-2015 |
