20080198395 | Print control device and program - Print data representing a superimposed image is generated by developing the main image on a first memory area, developing an additional image on the first memory area so as to be overlaid on the main image and on a second memory area having the same size of the first memory area. A first color conversion is applied to the image on the first memory for portions not corresponding to the image on the second memory area. A second color conversion, which is independent of the first color conversion, is applied to other portions of the image on the first memory for portions corresponding to the image on the second memory area. The image developed on the first memory area is output as the print data after the first color conversion and the second color conversion are applied. | 08-21-2008 |

20080297823 | Print Control Device, Printing System and Computer-Readable Recording Medium Storing Printing Program - A print controlling device is provided with an image data processing module configured to apply an image processing operation to an image data, a transmitting module configured to transmit the processed image data which is processed by the image data processing module to a printing device, and a modifying module configured to modify the image processing operation in accordance with the printing device to which the modified image data is to be transmitted. | 12-04-2008 |
20080297840 | Method and Computer Readable Medium for Printer Driver and Information Processing Device - There is provided a method for providing information from a printer driver. The method comprises the steps of: accepting a request for information concerning the printer driver; inquiring of at least one function filter about function information in accordance with configuration information containing a reference to the at least one function filter, in response to receipt of the request; obtaining, from the at least one function filter, the function information containing at least one current function of the at least one function filter, as a response to the inquiring; and providing the obtained function information for a requesting source of the request. | 12-04-2008 |
20100110452 | IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE AND RECORDING MEDIUM CONTAINING PROGRAM THEREFOR - An image processing device has a first print data receiving unit that receives first print data containing at least one image formation command, and a judging unit that judges whether each image formation command included in the first print data is a pixel number dependent command. An image processing device is configured such that a print image formation unit forms the print image on the printer-equivalent image formation area with increasing the number of pixels of the print image in accordance with the resolutions of the display-equivalent image formation area and the printer-equivalent image formation area if a judging unit judges that the image formation command is the pixel number dependent command, and the print image formation unit forms the print image on the printer-equivalent image formation area without modifying the print image if the judging unit judges that the image formation command is not the pixel number dependent command. | 05-06-2010 |
20100195134 | PRINTING SYSTEM, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM THEREFOR - A printing system includes an image forming device and an information processing device configured to transmit print data containing a plurality of pages of images to the image forming device and control the image forming device to print the images on sheets based on the print data. The information processing device includes a first transmitter configured to sequentially transmit, to the image forming device, print data of each of a main page and one or more ancillary pages to be printed in connection with the main page, and a second transmitter configured to transmit, to the image forming device, booking information regarding a number of the ancillary pages in association with transmission of the print data of the main page. | 08-05-2010 |
20120021801 | COMMUNICATION CONTROLLING METHOD, COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM, AND COMMUNICATION DEVICE - A method to control a communication device to communicate with a first external device in a first communication method and with a second external device in a second communication method being different from the first communication method is provided. The method includes steps of determining prior to communicating in the first communication method whether the communication device is set to communicate in the second communication method, switching the communication methods in the communication device from the second communication method to the first communication method when it is determined that the communication device is set to communicate in the second communication method, and communicating with the first external device in the first communication method after switching the communication methods. | 01-26-2012 |
20120026538 | COMMUNICATION CONTROLLING METHOD, COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM, AND COMMUNICATION DEVICE - A method to control a communication device to communicate with a first external device in a first communication method and with a second external device in a second communication method is provided. The method includes steps of determining prior to communicating in the first communication method whether the communication device is under an ongoing communication session in the second communication method, executing one of switching the communication methods in the communication device from the second communication method to the first communication method when the communication device is not under any ongoing communication session in the second communication method and maintaining the second communication method set in the communication device when the communication device is under an ongoing communication session, and communicating with the first external device in the first communication method after switching the communication methods from the second communication method to the first communication method. | 02-02-2012 |
