摘要： This invention saves a sensed image in a printer in an environment in which a digital camera can directly communicate with a printer, and a sensed image can be directly printed.A printer (1000) and digital camera (DSC) can be directly connected to each other via a USB interface. Upon this direct connection, the digital camera and printer serve as a print system, and the DSC serves as a user interface in that system. When the user inputs a print instruction of a desired image on the DSC, a print process of that image is executed. When the user inputs a save instruction of a given image, that image is saved in a storage device in the printer. Even when the image is erased on the DSC side, original image data can be prevented from being lost.

摘要： After applications installed in a DSC and PD printer establish a communication procedure, the DSC issues a request to the PD printer. A time required for data transfer involved in the request is predicted. An elapse time until a response is received from the PD printer in response to the request is estimated on the basis of the predicted time. If no response is returned from the PD printer within the estimated elapse time, the request is disabled.

摘要： In an image processing apparatus which performs an error diffusion process to multivalued image data consisting of plural density components and outputs a result of the error diffusion process, the process result from a first error diffusion unit performing the error diffusion process based on a density value of a first density component included in the plural density components or the process result from a second error diffusion unit performing the error diffusion process based on the density value of the first density component and a density value of at least one density component included in other density components is selected according to a predetermined condition. Thus, even in an image process is performed to a larger number of gradations, a high-speed process can be achieved with simple structure, and the error diffusion process can be effectively performed to a shift of dot apply positions.

摘要： Upon outputting halftone image data to an output device, density transformation is prevalently done to improve image quality. Density transformation corresponds to linear gamma correction, and cannot correct any color fog and the like of a photo image. Hence, lightness/color difference information of halftone image data is acquired on the basis of low-frequency components of frequency data obtained by transforming halftone image data into spatial frequency components, and a lightness/color difference transform amount of the halftone image data is set on the basis of the acquired lightness/color difference information.

摘要： Correction for color fog is securely achieved with limited load of processing. The RGB image data are converted into the luminance Y and the chromaticity values C1, C2, then a highlight point and a shadow point are determined and are connected to define the axis of the color solid. The color solid is rotated so as that the axis becomes parallel to the luminance axis Y and is so translated in parallel manner that the pixel of the minimum luminance coincides with the original point of the color space.

摘要： An adapter capable of communicating with an image supply device and an image output device and allowing direct printing even when a plurality of images are transferred at the same time from image supply devices. The adapter transmits a print request associated with a first image to the image output device. If acquisition of a second image is completed before acquisition of the first image completed, the adapter transfers the second image instead of the first image as the image to be printed.

摘要： Software of a simple configuration checks whether an original image to be corrected is an image picture, and an image correction process based upon a formed histogram of the original image is not performed for an image different from the image picture. An image processing condition is set in accordance with the formed histogram to perform the image correction process for the original image. An image processing method judges from a shape of the formed histogram whether the original image is an image picture, and does not perform not perform the image correction process for the original image if it is judged that the original image is not an image picture.

摘要： A digital camera has a storage medium which stores imagedata and a DPOF associated with a print process of the image data, acquires information associated with the function of a printer upon connection of that printer, sets a CDPS job command associated with the print process of the image data on the basis of the acquired information associated with the functions, sets a print condition for the printer on the basis of the DPOF and CDPS command, and sends a print instruction. The printer acquires image data stored in the storage medium in accordance with the designated print condition and prints the image data.
