    摘要: A printer server connectable to a plurality of printers includes a receiver for receiving print data from an external apparatus, a first discrimination unit for discriminating a representation by which the received print data is described, and a selection unit for selecting, from the plurality of printers, a printer to print an image corresponding to the received print data. A second discrimination unit of the printer server discriminates whether the selected printer is capable of processing print data in the discriminated representation. When the selected printer is not capable of processing print data in the discriminated representation, a controller of the printer sever converts the received print data into print data in another representation and transmits the print data in the other representation. The controller transmits print data in the discriminated representation when the selected printer is capable of processing print data in the discriminated representation. The apparatus also includes a status receiver for receiving, from the selected printer, status information indicating that transmitting print data has been printed normally. A status sending unit of the apparatus sends the status information to the external apparatus.

    摘要: When a document sheet image is stored in a storage medium, characters are recognized for the document sheet image to detect character codes and position information. The detected character codes and position information and the document sheet image are stored in the storage medium. When a desired image is retrieved from the storage medium and displayed on a display unit and a desired area on the display screen is designated, character codes of the characters contained in the image of the designated area are outputted in accordance with the coordinate information of the designated area and the stored coordinate information of the characters.

    摘要: A window of n.times.m dot is spread over binarized color image data in an original image in order to multi-levelcode the binary data for various image processes with respect to the multi-level-coded data. A binary window is re-arranged to determine the number of dots to be printed within the window for re-arrangement of the dots so as to correspond to the dot positions in the original image. When the number of dots to be printed is within the number of dots in the original image, the dots are rearranged so as to correspond to the dot positions in the original image, while on the contrary, when the number of dots to be printed is increased or decreased, the number of dots is accordingly increased or decreased based on a table, in which the priority of dot arrangement is provided. For these reasons, it is possible to perform various image processes to meet the characteristics of a desired binary color printer even if the original image contains binary color data, thereby allowing a good color image suitable for the binary color printer to be produced.

    摘要: A variety of parameters for a scanner printer are set from a host computer on a network by arranging a scanner printer server system composed of the host computer and the scanner printer server connected to the network, and a scanner and a printer connected to the scanner printer. The scanner printer server system has a bidirectional communication channel formed between the scanner, the printer and the scanner printer server, wherein characters, graphics and a method of transferring image are instructed from the host computer and the data is transferred by the instructed transference method.
