摘要:
An image forming apparatus includes a storage unit that stores therein print data and first converted data obtained by reflecting a first print condition in the print data and converting the print data into a printable form; an input receiving unit that receives an input of a reprint instruction to reprint the first converted data; an acquiring unit that acquires a second print condition for reprinting the first converted data; a determining unit that determines whether the first converted data is printable in the second print condition by comparing the acquired second print condition against the first print condition; a converting unit that converts, when it is determined that the first converted data is unprintable in the second print condition, the print data into second converted data by reflecting the second print condition in the print data; a print control unit prints out the second converted data.

An image forming apparatus counts a number of sheets to be printed with a limited number of colorants or a limited amount of colorant using an other counter that is provided other than a color counter and a monochrome counter. The counter value of the other counter is adjusted using a weighting factor having a value determined based on a number of colors of colorant or an amount of colorant that is used for printing in the economical printing mode, before being added to a counter value of the color counter or the monochrome counter.

An image forming apparatus capable of both normal printing and special-purpose printing includes a first identification unit, a second identification unit, and a selection unit. The first identification unit identifies a type of print data. The second identification unit identifies a type of print material. The selection unit selects a print resource in accordance with a combination of the type of print data identified by the first identification unit and the type of print material identified by the second identification unit. The selection unit selects the print resource so as to prevent unauthorized printing from being performed when the print data is for special-purpose printing.

A method of controlling medium feeding in an image forming apparatus includes an image forming step of forming an image on a medium in response to an image forming request, and a feed control step of selecting one of a plurality of first medium feed units that feeds a medium corresponding to attribute information that matches medium attribute information included in the image forming request, and of selecting a second medium feed unit upon finding matching between attribute information indicative of a medium fed by the second medium feed unit and the medium attribute information included in the image forming request if none of the first medium feed units feeds a medium corresponding to the attribute information that matches the medium attribute information included in the image forming request.
摘要:
Image processing apparatus and method to perform an image processing job based on a received processing request, which includes a processing condition set by a user. Error protection is performed to detect a job setting error caused by a mismatching between the processing condition of the image processing job and a processing capability of the image processing apparatus. Error information relates to a previously detected air that is the job setting error previously detected. Error report conditions indicate whether the previously detected air has a same condition as the processing condition of the image processing job. Error information is managed to store information relating to the currently detected error when the currently detected error satisfies an error storage condition, determine whether the currently detected satisfies the error report condition and generate an error report to notify the user and an administrator when these conditions are satisfied.

摘要:
An image forming apparatus, including a plurality of applications each including a reception unit configured to receive print data, a determination unit configured to analyze the print data received by the reception unit to determine the data format thereof, and a print control unit configured to print an image of print data having a specific data format. The print data analyzed by the determination unit is sent to the print control unit when the data format is determined to be equivalent to the specific data format, or another reception unit when the data format is determined to be different from the specific data format.

An image forming apparatus includes a memory interface configured to receive an external memory, an internal memory, a reading unit, a writing unit, and an activating unit. The activating unit activates the image forming apparatus when an external memory is connected to the memory interface and model data read from the external memory by the reading unit is the same as model data about the image forming apparatus stored in the internal memory.
