Disclosed in an ink jet recording apparatus capable of providing high quality images in a stable manner for image signals of different transfer rates. A detector detects the receiving rate of an image signal supplied to the ink jet recording apparatus, and at least one of driving voltage, driving current, pulse duration, driving frequency and driving signal wave form is modified according to the detected receiving rate of the image signal.

A driving method for a thermal head having plural heat generating elements for image recording on a recording medium comprises a step of detecting the presence of past, present and future heating signals in an area, in at least four directions around the heat generating element when the power is supplied to a heat generating element according to a heating signal and a step of controlling the supply energy to the heat generating element in response to the result of the detection, if the heating signals are present in all of the detecting area, for minimizing the supply energy to the heat generating element in comparison with a case in which the heating signals are not present in all of the detecting area.

A facsimile communication system in which transmission is carried out in such a manner that, when the time of transmission of the video signals of lines provided by scanning an original is shorter than that determined by a facsimile on the signal receiving side, fill bits are transmitted in succession with the video signals so that the time of transmission of each line is adjusted to that determined by the facsimile on the signal receiving side. The period of time required for the facsimile on the signal receiving side to record video signals per line is discriminated by a facsimile on the signal transmitting side for every line according to the contents of video signals. The period of time thus discriminated is utilized as the time of transmission to transmit the video signals for each line.

A copying machine includes an optical sensor of the line scanning type for converting an image into electrical signals, and a thermal recording head controlled in accordance with the image signals. The platen moves with respect to the read unit and the read unit will read in both forward and reverse directions of the platen, and the magnification value can be varied. The total width of energized heating elements and the movement length and speed of the platen may be controlled in accordance with the size of the original. The total number of heating elements energized at any one time is limited, and the machine includes input and output terminals for sending image information externally and for receiving and recording image information other than directly from the read unit.
摘要:
A heat-transfer recording medium is described, which includes a substrate and a two color transfer layer on the substrate, wherein the two color transfer layer contains a solid heat-sensitive ink which melts or sublimates at a relatively low temperature and is transferred to a recording paper as a predetermined color, and a heat-sensitive color-forming ink dispersed in the solid heat-sensitive ink, which melts or sublimates at a relatively high temperature, and is transferred to the recording paper in a color different from the above color.

A multicolor recording apparatus includes a number of recording sections for applying different colors of inks. A main transport path travels through all recording sections, while bypass paths are provided for recording sheets which are to be recorded monochromatically, for example, so that any one or more of the recording sections may be bypassed. To eliminate wastage of ink donor sheet, the web containing the solid ink is not conveyed in recording sections bypassed by the sheet.

A multi-color thermal transfer recorder has a thermal recording head, a roll disposed opposite to the thermal recording head, and an ink donor sheet having two or more layers of single-color ink different in color from each other, the length of each ink layer being equal to the length of the outer circumference of the opposing roll.

A heat-sensitive recording head including an insulating substrate, an array of heat generating elements, a plurality of leads alternately arranged on both sides of the array of heat generating elements on the insulating substrate with the heat generating elements interposed between the leads. Lead wires are connected to predetermined ones of the leads either directly or through diodes. The lead wires are arranged in a matrix format and heat generating elements are coupled in blocks with the number of blocks being equal to half the number of common drive terminals provided. With the number of blocks represented by n, the average value of the resistances of the heat generating elements by r, and the maximum variation of the resistances by .+-.r, ##EQU1## is established.
摘要:
A color image forming apparatus includes an image signal input portion which supplies three image signals C, M and Y associated with cyan, magenta and yellow; an image signal conversion processing portion which converts the image signals C, M and Y into six image signals associated with thick C and thin C, thick M and thin M, and thick Y and thin Y, respectively, by using a thick/thin sorting table; and a color masking processing portion which performs color masking process, and outputs converted six image signals associated with thick C to thin Y. The converted six image signals undergo a black generation process, a UCR process and a black printing process, and a binarization processing thereafter. This makes it possible to produce color images of high quality with high reproducibility even if the hues of N color materials, which belong to the same color family and have different densities, such as thin cyan and thick cyan, differ from each other to some extent.
