摘要： An image-printing system for printing a fine image represented by digital image data, which is being displayed by a television receiver. The system comprises an image-processing section 13, an image output section 13, a printer apparatus 5, and a printing control section 23. The image-processing section 13 processes an externally input image signal, generating image data. The image output section 13 outputs a packet to the printer apparatus 5. The packet complies with the IEEE (The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers) 1394 standards and contains the image data generated by the image-processing section 13. The printing control section 23 controls the printer apparatus 5 so that the apparatus 5 may print the data represented by the image data contained in the packet that the image output section 13 has output to the printer apparatus 5.

摘要： If bus resetting occurs during transmission of printing data (ST21), a printer device is requested to transmit the information output before the occurrence of bus resetting by a STB (C18). Responsive to a request from the STB, the information input before the occurrence of the bus resetting is output from the printing device to the STB (R18). Based on the information input responsive to the request, printing data is again output from the STB to the printing device (C19). So, the system itself recognizes the information output by the STB before the occurrence of the bus resetting to re-initiate data transmission as from mid data (S14). Thus, data transmission is to be carried out in a shorter time even when the bus resetting occurs to shorten the entire printing time.

摘要翻译： 如果在打印数据的传输期间发生总线复位（ST21），则要求打印机设备在由STB（C18）发生总线复位之前发送输出的信息。 响应于来自STB的请求，在总线复位发生之前输入的信息从打印装置输出到STB（R18）。 基于响应于该请求的信息输入，打印数据再次从STB输出到打印装置（C19）。 因此，系统本身在总线复位发生之前识别由STB输出的信息，以从中间数据重新开始数据传输（S14）。 因此，即使发生总线复位以缩短整个打印时间，也将在更短的时间内进行数据传输。

摘要： A printing apparatus provides with an interface conforming to the IEEE 1394 Standards can carry out printing operations on a stable basis. The printing apparatus comprises a printing engine for carrying out a printing operation by using a printing data and a data input section adapted to receive a printing data contained in a packet conforming to the IEEE 1394 Standards and a command packet from an STB. The printing apparatus is moved into an idle status M2 for receiving a command packet when an add printing command is input from the STB and into a reception status M3 for limiting the reception of command packets other than the one containing a data transmission command when a data transmission command for receiving a printing data is input.

摘要： A trace line picture which is manually drawn with a pen is taken in by a camera or a scanner, and is supplied to a personal computer as an original line drawing. The personal computer carries out thinning processing on the supplied line drawing, and paints all pixels in a closed area surrounded by the thinned line with a color designated by an operator. Then, the computer thickens the original trace line and colors pixels on the thickened trace line with a predetermined color, in accordance with a command from the operator. The computer synthesizes the picture of the closed area surrounded by the thinned line and the thickened picture in accordance with a predetermined synthesis formula. Finally, the computer checks whether or not pictures synthesized over several frames are displayed as an appropriate dynamic image. By the above-described production processing, an animation color image can be quickly produced by using the computer.

摘要： A capture command in the AV/C protocol of the IEEE 1394 standard is set as follows.The quantity of data to be transmitted (data_size), the number of pixels in the X-direction (image_size_x) and the number of pixels in the Y-direction (image_size_y) are all set to 0. The image type (image_format_specifier) is set to “Don't Care”.A printer device, having received such a capture command, makes a blank in the corresponding print area without printing the image and then prints the next image.

摘要： In a printing system in which with a plurality of different types of controllers connected to one serial bus, different types of print data can be inputted to and printed by a printing unit. When a set top box and desktop and portable personal computers, different in type from each other, are connected to a IEEE 1394 serial bus, screen data is outputted from the set top box to an AV/C printer and PDL data is outputted from the personal computers to the AV/C printer. The AV/C printer judges the image type of the input data. Based on the image type, the printing system converts the print data to a type of print data supported by the AV/C printer.
