    摘要: A printing device comprises a head including nozzles configured to eject ink and is configured to print, with use of the ink, an image having a plurality of pixels on a printing medium, an input device configured to receive information designating a pixel in the image, and a controller. The controller performs judging a priority of a designated color of a designated pixel designated by the information designating the pixel, determining one of conditions including a number, sizes, and the number and sizes of the designated patches of the designated color, based on the priority judged by the judging, and printing a patch chart containing the designated patch according to the one of the conditions on the printing medium.

    摘要: An information processing device that transmits print data to a printing apparatus includes a storage unit that stores combination information configured to identify a combination of a color of a print medium and a color of a color material and an adaptive density range that is a range of print densities suitable for reading a code image, a print combination information acquisition unit that acquires print combination information configured to identify a combination of a color of the print medium and a color of the color material, a density setting value acquisition unit that acquires a density setting value, a density determination unit that determines, whether the density setting value is included in the adaptive density range stored in association with the combination information same as the print combination information, and a density change unit that changes a print density of the print data.

    摘要: A method for enhancing resolution of a radiation sensitive microcapsule-based printer includes generating multiple subpixels in a sub-scan direction. The method further includes mapping multiple grids onto a photosensitive medium, the multiple grids corresponding to the multiple subpixels. The method further includes determining an exposure energy required for each grid of the multiple grids. The method further includes allocating the exposure energy required for each grid into a first exposure level and a second exposure level. The method further includes exposing each grid of the photosensitive medium to the corresponding first exposure level and the corresponding second exposure level sequentially as the photosensitive medium passes through the radiation sensitive microcapsule-based printer in the sub-scan direction.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus is configured to, based on a reading result of a test image, generate data that is used to adjust image forming positions of toner images to be formed by an image forming unit, control an image forming position of a first toner image to be formed by the image forming unit in a first contact state based on first data, the first toner image being transferred to a first sheet, and control an image forming position of a second toner image to be formed by the image forming unit in a second contact state based on second data that is different from the first data, the second toner image being transferred to a second sheet, wherein a type of the second sheet is the same type as the type of the first sheet.

    摘要: A quality control management system, and methods therefor, comprising a tracking and labeling system for construction defects. A labeling system may include uniquely machine-coded and computer-readable labels which may be placed near the location of a defect. The labeling system may also use alphanumeric codes and color-coded schemes to uniquely identify the nature and characteristics of a defect. A defect tracking system may be in the form of mobile application software which can be integrated with the labeling system. The mobile application software may be accessible on a mobile device, such as a smartphone, allowing a user to take a scan, or take a picture of, a label with their mobile device camera and automatically, or manually, associate various types of information with a corresponding defect. The mobile application software may allow users to create, view, and edit defect lists, as well as monitor and manage the workflow of defect repairs.
