There is provided a print system for transmitting and receiving a data object by a PTP between a camera-equipped mobile phone (CP) and a PD printer and printing an image by the PD printer according to image data supplied from the CP. First information indicating presence/absence of the direct print function capable of printing by transmitting image data from the CP directly to the PD printer and second information indicating presence/absence of the cooperated processing function with the CP and the PD printer are embedded in a data object which is transmitted and received. When it is judged that the received object contains the first and the second information, the CP and the printer are set to the direct print function and the cooperated processing function mode.

When a print command that designates a layout recording function by its upper layer, and designates a frame print function by its lower layer is transmitted from a camera to a printer, the printer determines a layout print function that prints a plurality of images on a single sheet, based on the upper layer. In a case where the printer can determine the lower layer of the command, the printer acquires details of a layout. In a case where the printer cannot determine the lower layer of the command, the printer determines a normal frame print function. The printer prints a normal layout image or special frame image in accordance with the determined layout of images.

A DSC 1 (3012) and a DSC 2 (2012) are connected with each other via an interface different from that of a photo-direct printer 1000. When the job controller 1023 receives a job from the DSC 1 or DSC 2, it stores printing information, which is information on the job, and information on a source of the job, in a queuing buffer 1024 associated with each other. The job controller 1023 can accept printing information from the DSC 1 or the DSC 2 in parallel with a printing process. The job controller 1023 can also perform a canceling process of a job queued by using information on a source.

In a case where a digital camera cannot understand or recognize a request received from a printer, the camera ignores the received request and discards the received request, and transmits a command that does not include any user instruction or print operation to the printer in place of the correct response to the request. In such case, the printer receives the command as the response to the request, and recognizes that the request transmitted by the printer cannot be accepted by the camera.
摘要:
After applications installed in a DSC and PD printer establish a communication procedure, the DSC issues a request to the PD printer. A time required for data transfer involved in the request is predicted. An elapse time until a response is received from the PD printer in response to the request is estimated on the basis of the predicted time. If no response is returned from the PD printer within the estimated elapse time, the request is disabled.
摘要:
A photo-direct printer apparatus which prints an image on the basis of image data from a digital camera, memory card, or PC serving as an image data source receives a control command from the image data source, interprets the control command, and receives image data from the image data source on the basis of the command. The printer apparatus decodes and processes the received image data, and generates and prints print data and print an image based on the print data.

A system to perform a wiping operation upon an ink jet print head includes a first motion of the ink jet print head in a first direction to wipe the ink jet print head against a wiping element, and a second motion of the ink jet print head in the first direction to wipe the ink jet print head against the wiping element. A system to wipe an ink jet print head also includes a first motion of the ink jet print head in a first direction against a wiping element to wipe the ink jet print head, and ejection of ink toward the wiping element during the first motion. The wiping element may be a non-planar wave wiper.

A method and apparatus for cooling a print head of an ink jet printer before capping includes the steps of determining an ambient temperature, determining a print head temperature, and waiting a predetermined time after receipt of the last print data for the print job, ejecting a predetermined number of ink droplets from nozzles of the print head at a frequency lower than a frequency used for printing, determining a drop in print head temperature caused by ejecting the predetermined number of ink droplets, and repeating the steps of waiting a predetermined time and ejecting a predetermined number of ink droplets until the print head temperature falls below a threshold.
