An image forming apparatus includes a failure prediction unit, an image identification unit, a simulated-image generating unit, and an output unit. The failure prediction unit prepares an index value indicating a condition of the image forming apparatus based on multidimensional signal, obtained by monitoring the image forming apparatus, and compares the index value with a first threshold value to predict a failure mode of the image forming apparatus. The image identification unit identifies types of abnormal images based on the failure mode predicted by the failure prediction unit. An identified abnormal image is predicted to be appear a given time later. The simulated-image generating unit generates a simulated image of the identified abnormal image. The output unit outputs the identified abnormal image as the simulated image.

In an image forming apparatus, a first controller forms a first image pattern on an image bearer and determines a first image formation condition based on a detection result of density of a toner image. The first controller then controls a toner image forming device based on the first image formation condition. A second controller forms a second image pattern different from the first image pattern on an image bearer and determines a second image formation condition based on a detection result of density of a toner image. The second controller then controls a toner image forming device based on the second image formation condition.

An image forming apparatus includes toner image forming devices for forming toner images of a plurality of mutually different colors, a toner image carrying member for carrying thereon the toner images of the plurality of colors to be transferred onto a recording medium at one time, an adhesion amount detection device for detecting a toner adhesion amount of each of the toner images, and a failure determination device for determining the presence or absence of a sign of failure in the toner image forming devices. The failure determination device determines the presence or absence of the sign of failure in one of the toner image forming devices on the basis of information based on adhesion amount detection results obtained through detection by the adhesion amount detection device of toner adhesion amounts of toner images formed on the toner image carrying member by the other toner image forming devices.
摘要:
In a digital PLL system, instead of measuring a binarized playback RF signal with a high frequency clock, pulse-length data is generated by using N phase clocks (for example, 16 phase clocks). The pulse-length data is then counted with a virtual channel clock so as to extract run-length data. In this digital PLL system, the number of changing points of an asynchronous signal during an interval between adjacent clocks of the N phase clocks is detected so as to determine phase errors from the detected number of changing points. Phase errors are also determined from the timing relationship between changing points of a signal synchronized with the N phase clocks and each clock of the N phase clocks.

A positioning controlling apparatus includes: a current speed calculator that calculates a current speed of a conveyor belt from a detected moving distance; a position determining unit that determines the position of a conveyor belt for determining its stop position also from the detected moving distance; a gain switch having a plurality of gains; a target speed calculator that inputs a gain obtained by switching, and calculates a target speed of the conveyor belt; a speed error calculator that calculates an error between a calculated target speed and a calculated current speed; and an automatic controller that controls a drive motor by using a speed error. When the position determining unit determines that the conveyor belt is in the positioning area, the gain switch performs positioning while switching plural gains and outputting it.

摘要:
When incorporating a print server (20) in a wireless LAN (1), an attached communication environment setting program is installed in a client terminal (10) and executed. Thereby, an advertisement packet is generated and broadcasted in the wireless LAN (1). In the print server (20), a program preinstalled therein continues attempt of changing channels and modes one by one until the advertisement packet is correctly received, and sets the channel and the communication mode used for the reception as the setting items of the communication environment. Thus, only by installing and executing the communication environment setting program in the client terminal (10), the communication mode and the channel can be set with ease.
