Abstract: A reduced content image generator generates a reduced content image representing an imaging job. The reduced content image is generated from imaging data that is part of the imaging job. The reduced content image may be generated from the original imaging data or from the imaging data as processed at any step in the process of completing the imaging job. The reduced content image or a pointer to the reduced content image may be stored with other information regarding the imaging job and displayed with the other information to help identify the imaging job.

Abstract: A printing system operates multiple different printing pipeline stages that together convert raster formatted print data or image formatted print data into a printer swath. The raster formatted print data or image formatted print data is received at the different printing pipeline stages according to the print data's level of rasterization. This allows the rasterization stages that have already been performed on the print data to be skipped. In another aspect of the printing system, the controller identifies job or page settings in the raster or image print data and uses the identified job setting in the different pipeline stages to rasterize the print data.

Abstract: Methods and systems for estimating the amount of color ink that will be used to print a print job element classify individual color drawing objects of the print job element in a pre-raster image process (pre-RIP) format into drawing object classes and apply predetermined rules associated with the drawing object classes to obtain color ink usage estimates for the individual color drawing objects. Combination of color ink usage estimates for the individual color drawing objects yields a prompt and meaningful estimate of color ink usage for the print job element. The estimate of color ink usage for the print job element can be put to advantageous use in a pay-for-print service.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide an effective method for color proofing by outputting multiple reduced or full-size versions of some selected sample of a color rendering job using different color attribute settings for each of the multiple versions. The color attribute settings may be user selected, automatically selected, or a combination of the two. A new rendering job is then generated, with each image in the new job representing one set of settings for the sample. The new rendering job may be rendered as an N-up job, where each scaled 1/Nth image shows one of the different sets of color attribute settings for the sample. Each image may include an identifier, so the user can select one image and then enter or select the identified settings in the driver. Once desired color rendering has been achieved, the entire color-adjusted rendering job may be output to the rendering device.

Abstract translation: 本发明的实施例通过使用针对多个版本中的每一个的不同颜色属性设置，输出一些所选颜色再现作业的样本的多个缩小或全尺寸版本来提供彩色打样的有效方法。 颜色属性设置可以是用户选择，自动选择，或两者的组合。 然后生成新的渲染作业，新作业中的每个图像表示样本的一组设置。 新的渲染作业可以呈现为N-up作业，其中每个缩放的第1 /第N图像显示样本的不同颜色属性设置集合之一。 每个图像可以包括标识符，因此用户可以选择一个图像，然后在驱动器中输入或选择所识别的设置。 一旦所期望的颜色再现已经实现，整个颜色调整的渲染作业可以被输出到渲染装置。
