摘要:
An image signal processing apparatus may include a line sensor for photoelectrically reading an original image and outputting an image signal, a rotary encoder for setting reproduction magnifications of the original image, an edge emphasis circuit for performing edge emphasis processing for the image signal output from the line sensor, and W- and R-address counters and first and second clock cotnrol signals, all of which cooperate to control a degree of edge emphasis performed by the edge emphasis circuit in accordance with the reproduction magnification set by the rotary encoder. The magnification can preferably be set independently for the main scanning and the sub-scanning directions. A correction signal is used in the edge emphasis processing, and is preferably formed on the basis of image signals of pixels near the particular pixel of interest. The image signal may also be smoothed after edge emphasis.

This invention has as its object to perform smooth black color processing of a character, line, and the like and to prevent deterioration of image quality. A character-thickness judgment unit in a black character judgment unit judges the thickness of a character/line image portion in an image on the basis of R, G, and B signals representing an image supplied from a host computer. An edge detection unit obtains edge information of a character/line image, and a saturation judgment unit obtains saturation information thereof. When image processing is performed by combining the edge information and the saturation information, the thickness judgment signal is corrected, so that the thickness of the character or line changes continuously. A UCR unit is arranged to perform black color processing in accordance with the substrate.

In a control device for a vibration wave motor, in the case where the device executes an operation involving a large variation in the load while the motor is controlled at a target speed by the driving frequency using a feedback system, such feedback control is inhibited or the response of the feedback control is restricted in order to avoid the drawback resulting from feedback control at the time of generation of the variation in the load.

When an image from a scanner or an external apparatus is to be printed out, in order to achieve both high color reproducibility and high gray reproducibility, a black signal is extracted from an input color image signal, the ratio of the extracted black signal to the color image signal is changed in accordance with an input instruction, and an output operation is performed in accordance with the extracted black signal and the color image signal. When a color image signal is formed by scanning an image, a black signal is extracted from the color image signal, a high-frequency component of the extracted black signal is removed, and an output operation is performed in accordance with the black signal, from which the high-frequency component is removed, and with the color image signal.

A color image processing apparatus includes arranging means for arranging intervals between dot positions on a scanning line at which dots are formed, and shifting means for shifting the dot positions on the scanning line by a shifting amount. At least one of the intervals and the shifting amount for a first color component are different from an interval and a shifting amount of a second color component. The processing apparatus also includes control means for controlling the arranging means and the shifting means so that n (n.gtoreq.3) adjacent dot positions at which the first color component and the second color component overlap correspond to vertices of a substantially regular polygon having n vertices.
