摘要:
A developer of an image-forming apparatus includes a photoconductor, a housing comprising a waste toner container in which waste toner removed from the photoconductor is contained, and a recessed portion depressed downwardly in a center portion of an upper wall of the waste toner container, the center portion corresponding to a center portion of the photoconductor in a lengthwise direction to move toner away from the center portion.
摘要:
A chip mountable on a replaceable unit used in an image forming job is disclosed. The chip includes a central processing unit (CPU) to perform at least one of authentication and cryptographic data communication with a main body of the image forming apparatus using an operating system (OS) of the CPU which operates separately from an OS of the image forming apparatus. With the use of such a configuration, security for a unit in which the chip is mounted can thereby be reinforced.

A memory controller includes a ring oscillator to generate and to output at least one oscillation clock, an oscillation counter to count the output oscillation clocks, a sampler to receive the reference clock so as to sample a number of the counted oscillation clocks during a period of the reference clock, and a phase value output unit to output the sampled number of oscillation clocks as a phase value of the reference clock. Thereby, the memory controller can detect the phase value using only two periods of the reference clock, and reduce the initial operation time of a system.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus including a multi-processor and an image forming method thereof. The apparatus includes a data processing unit to divide input print data into a plurality of divided print data according to a predetermined criterion and to simultaneously process the plurality of divided print data using a multi-processor, and an image forming unit to form an image corresponding to the processed print data.
摘要:
An apparatus and method to adjust an alignment between scanning lines of a laser printer. The apparatus may include a laser scanning unit having a plurality of laser diodes and an adjustment unit to adjust a plurality of video data using an integer part and a decimal fraction part to synchronize with synchronization signals from the plurality of laser diodes, the integer part and the decimal fraction part constituting a real number that is calculated by using a video clock for synchronizing with the plurality of video data and the synchronization signals from the plurality of laser diodes scanning the plurality of video data. The apparatus and method compensate for an error occurring between the scanning lines due to the location differences of the respective laser diodes.

摘要:
A replaceable unit to participate in an image forming job of an image forming apparatus includes a storage unit to store therein a driving condition corresponding to an operation environment, a detecting unit to monitor the operation environment, a controlling unit to detect a corresponding driving condition from the storage unit if the detecting unit detects the driving environment, and an interface unit to provide a main body of the image forming apparatus with the detected corresponding driving condition. Accordingly, the replaceable unit can be driven under optimum driving conditions.

A chip mountable on a customer replaceable unit monitoring memory (CRUM) unit used in an image forming job includes a central processing unit (CPU) with its own operating system (OS), which operates separately from an OS of the image forming apparatus, to perform authentication communication with a main body of the image forming apparatus using the OS of the CPU. The security of a unit on which the chip is mounted can thereby be reinforced and random changes of data of the unit can be prevented.
