    摘要: Computation of digital gains and offsets used in digital scanners for shading correction (linearity correction) is particularly vulnerable to imperfections in the reference strips, particularly the light reference strip. It is extremely difficult and expensive to create references which are completely free of imperfections or contaminated in some way. This invention eliminates artifacts caused by the presence of small imperfections on the references. It does so by detecting the presence of an artifact and then excluding data contributed by the artifact from the calibration computation process.

    摘要: A method of altering the appearance of an input digital image when printed, the digital image comprised of an array of pixels and wherein each pixel is assigned a digital value representing marking information, and wherein the pixels comprise Text/Line pixels and halftone pixels, the method comprising the steps of changing the value of halftone pixels using a custom tone transfer function that anticipates the effect of the reassigned pixel values on halftone appearance; rasterizing the digital image; reassigning the digital values of all pixels; and, printing the image.

    摘要: A method of printing an image with a printer having magnetic ink character recognition (MICR) toning capability, the method comprising the steps of: converting the image into a digital bitmap comprised of an array of pixels wherein each pixel is assigned a digital value representing marking information; defining each pixel as either a background pixel, interior pixel, or an edge pixel; and, reassigning the digital value of one or more edge pixels or interior pixels independently, thereby altering the concentration of magnetizable substances within the image when printed in order to improve the readability of printed characters by reading instrumentation.

    摘要: Apparatus is disclosed having document recognition capability for determining the size and location of an original document on a scanner platen before the document is scanned for image capture, and which effects both document recognition and image capture within a single scan cycle. A platen is optically scanned in forward and reverse intrack directions, and an electrical information signal characteristic of the optical densities scanned is created. Document recognition is responsive to the electrical information signal produced during the forward direction scan for detecting the boundaries of an original document on the platen. Image capture is responsive to the electrical information signal produced during the reverse direction scan for producing a record of the image on the original document. Magnification is provided for changing the size of the recorded image from that of the image on the original document in part by adjusting the speed of the reverse intrack scan, and is automatically adjustable in accordance with the size of the recording sheet.
