Abstract: A printing device includes an inspection system that uses variable intervals to inspect printed sheets for a print job. The variable interval sets the inspection points for the inspection process. Once a defect is detected on a printed sheet, the sheets in the paper path are cleared and separated into good and defective sets of sheets. The cleared sheets are sent to an output bin for further review. After addressing the defect, the last good sheet printed is determined and adjusted to resume printing operations.

Abstract: Provided is an image forming apparatus capable of changing a guidance screen from a terminal. An instruction acquiring unit acquires an instruction to change a guidance screen stored in a storage unit. A change acquiring unit acquires change data corresponding to the instruction acquired by the instruction acquiring unit from an external terminal 2. A change application unit applies the change data acquired by the change acquiring unit to screen data of the guidance screen. A display unit displays the screen data of the guidance screen to which the change data is applied by the change application unit.

Abstract: A printing system includes a digital front end (DFB) system connected to a plurality of printing devices. The DFE system manages printing operations to the plurality of printing devices. The DFE system also includes a printing device connectivity manager to manage connections with the printing devices. Printing connectivity modules are installed at the printing device connectivity manager using application programming interfaces (APIs) that are loaded at the creation of the printing connectivity modules. The DFE system also includes a display device connectivity manager to manage connections with display devices using display connectivity modules and display connectivity APIs. The DFE system also includes a storage connectivity manager to manage data storage and storage devices using storage connectivity modules and storage connectivity APIs.

Abstract: Provided is an image processing apparatus that reduces the unnaturalness of variable printing. The terminal is this image processing apparatus for designing variable printing. The data acquisition unit acquires form data and variable data for variable printing. The variable drawing unit draws variable data as an aggregate figure with respect to the form data acquired by the data acquisition unit at an area where the drawing may be affected. The output unit outputs an aggregate figure drawn by the variable drawing unit.

Abstract: Provided is an information processing apparatus that enables an objective determination of an estimation of work related to printing. A data acquiring unit acquires a job for estimation. A unit estimating unit calculates an estimation of the work for each specific unit of the job acquired by the data acquiring unit. An entire estimating unit estimates and updates the estimation of the work for the entire job in real time based on the estimation of the work for the specific unit at the time calculated by the unit estimating unit. An estimation presenting unit presents the estimation of the work calculated by the entire estimating unit in real time.

Abstract: Provided is an image forming apparatus capable of reliably outputting remotely. The job acquisition unit acquires a job. When the job is acquired by the job acquisition unit, an imaging unit captures the surroundings and acquires image data. The person detection unit detects a person in the image data imaged by the imaging unit. When the person is detected by the person detection unit, the notification unit notifies the person to request a response to the job. The image forming unit forms an image of the job after the notification by the notification unit.

Abstract: Provided is an image processing apparatus that enhances the distinctiveness of document having a color portion and outputs in monochrome. A monochrome visual determination unit determines whether or not the distinctiveness of the color portion is low when the document data having the color portion is output in monochrome. This color portion includes characters, electronic marks, and graphs, and they are after a specific keyword. A monochrome presentation unit presents to a user a warning or a result of modification when there is the color portion that the distinctiveness is determined to be low by the monochrome visual determination unit. The monochrome presentation unit presents a state in which the document data is output in monochrome by displaying a preview.
