摘要:
According to this invention, there is provided an image printing system which causes a plurality of image printing apparatuses to share and concurrently process an image printing job for outputting a plurality of prints based on image printing conditions and image information supplied from an information processing apparatus. In the image printing system of the invention, each of the image printing apparatuses interactively connected to each other has a proof/wait selection function of selecting a proof mode of outputting a single print or a wait mode of displaying image printing conditions and waiting. A master machine to which image printing conditions and image information are supplied from an information processing apparatus executes image printing operation in the proof mode or wait mode, and transfers the image printing conditions and image information to another image printing apparatus.

An image forming system includes an input unit for input of setting information, an image forming unit, a conveying unit, a control unit, and a jam detecting unit, wherein a set of a plurality of different kinds of special sheets disposed in a predetermined order is used. When occurrence of a jam is detected by the jam detecting unit, the control unit recognizes whether a special sheet having been fed is present in the image forming system, and if it is recognized that a special sheet is present in the image forming system, the control unit controls the conveying unit, after the jam being released, to eject a special sheet or sheets as unnecessary up to one that is disposed preceding a special sheet that is of the same kind as a most front one that was present in the image forming system at the time of the occurrence of the jam.

An image forming apparatus having a first mode for image forming at a first recorded pixel density and a second mode for image forming at a second recorded pixel density that is higher than that in the first mode, includes: a selector for selecting either the first mode or the second mode; a fixing unit having a temperature detecting sensor to detect a temperature of the fixing unit; and a controller for changing a temperature condition to be set for the fixing unit in accordance with a change between the first recorded pixel density and the second recorded pixel density selected by the selector. When the first mode is changed to the second mode by the selector, the controller controls to switch the temperature condition of the fixing unit from a temperature condition H1 in the first mode to a temperature condition H2 in the second mode lower than that of the temperature condition H1, provides a predetermined second control temperature h2 between the temperature condition H1 and the temperature condition H2 to control inhibiting or allowing an image forming, and controls to inhibit the image forming when a temperature detected by the sensor is higher than the second control temperature h2, and to allow the image forming when the temperature detected by the sensor is lower than the second control temperature h2.

摘要:
An image forming apparatus comprises a conveyance section which conveys at least one sheet of a second special sheet group so as to be inserted between two special sheets of a first special sheet group on a stacking section. A rest of special sheets which belong to the same set as a special sheet of the second special sheet group having been last supplied is supplied and ejected to a sheet ejection destination other than the stacking section before a special sheet of the second special sheet group is inserted after the latter sheet of the two special sheets of the first special sheet group are supplied.
摘要:
There is described an image forming system constituted by an image forming apparatus and an external apparatus. The image forming apparatus includes a storing section to store image data, an image forming section and a controlling section to control the image forming operations. While, the external apparatus includes a data generating section to generate a plurality of print data sets, which are different from each other with respect to at least a part of each print data set, a selecting section to select selected-image data from the image data and a transmitting section to transmit the plurality of print data sets and selecting information indicating the selected-image data to the image forming apparatus. Based on the selecting information, the controlling section controls the image forming section so as to couple the selected-image data with each of print data sets to output coupled-image data.
