摘要:
There is described an image forming apparatus, which make it possible to appropriately print each of a valid print object and an invalid print object. The apparatus includes: a printing section to conduct a printing operation based on the print data, so as to create the print product; and a control section to determine whether the digital signature is valid or invalid so as to control the printing operation, based on the determined result. When the plurality of print objects includes both a valid print object for which the digital signature is determined as valid and an invalid print object for which the digital signature is determined as invalid, the control section controls the printing operation, so as to enable the valid print object to be printed, based on the print data, while disable the invalid print object to be printed, based on the print data.

Disclosed is an image forming apparatus including a communication section connected to a data processing apparatus through a communication line to perform image formation on the basis of data transmitted from the data processing apparatus through the communication section, the apparatus including: a plurality of storage sections each of which has a different free storage capacity and a different access speed; and a control section to obtain data size information of an XPS file from the XPS file including the data size information thereof in a head of a file data, frame, the XPS file being received from the data processing apparatus through the communication section, to select a storage section to store the XPS file from the plurality of storage sections on the basis of the data size information, and to allow the selected storage section to store the XPS file.

Disclosed is a print controlling device including a control unit to control printing according to an instruction which relates to the printing, wherein the control unit analyzes a page description language which relates to the printing, determines whether the printing is practically monochrome printing or color printing, and changes a first command of the page description language to a second command for monochrome printing when it is determined that the printing is monochrome printing.

摘要:
An encrypted data processing method for a printing system provided with a host which transmits print data or encrypted data formed by encrypting the print data, and an image forming apparatus connected with the host via a communication network to execute printing based on the print data, the method including: a first step of determining, in the image forming apparatus, whether transmitted data from the host is the encrypted data; a second step of executing printing process in cases where the transmitted data is not the encrypted data, and decrypting the encrypted data in cases where the transmitted data is the encrypted data; and a third step of executing the printing process in cases where the decryption of the encrypted data has been successfully executed, and storing the encrypted data into a storage section in cases where the decryption has failed.

Disclosed is an image forming apparatus including: a recording section which records job data including image data, and management information indicating a stored state of the job data and possible to be updated; and a control section which refers to the management information recorded in the recording section and executes image formation based on the job data when the stored state of the stored data is indicated to be normal.

Disclosed is an image forming apparatus, comprising: an image processing unit to generate multivalued data from an object included in print data in which a rendering command specifies filling of the object with a pattern, the object being subject to filling in a uniform density in the multivalued data, and to generate a bit map data which reproduces a halftone in a pseudo manner with a screen pattern from the multivalued data; and an image formation control unit to form an image on a recording medium based on the bit map data.

An image forming apparatus including: a memory section having a common storage area that temporarily stores data in an intermediate form, which are generated on the way between image data in a form of page description language and data in a bitmap form obtained by interpreting the image data, and the data in a bitmap form; and a control section configured to monitor a first event that the data in an intermediate form stored in the common storage area have been deleted and a second event that the data in a bitmap form stored in the common storage area have been deleted, and to determine presence or absence of area for the data in an intermediate form to be stored when either of the first and second events occurs.

Disclosed is an image forming apparatus including: a memory section having a common storage area that temporarily stores a plurality of pieces of data having different forms from each other; and a control section configured to deem an area of data expected to be deleted among the plurality of data in the common storage area, as an empty area when checking whether data is allowed to be stored in the common storage area.
