An image forming apparatus includes a receiving unit, a paper information storing unit, an initializing unit, a paper information comparing unit, a temporary stopping unit, and a printing unit. The receiving unit receives print jobs. The paper information storing unit stores paper information preset in the printed page. The initializing unit initializes the paper information stored in the paper information storing unit during a certain period. The paper information comparing unit compares the paper information of the page to be printed in the print job with the stored paper information. The temporary stopping unit temporarily stops printing according to the result of the comparison. The printing unit prints the print data of the page to be printed in the case that the paper information of the page to be printed is the same as the stored paper information or the stored paper information has been initialized.

摘要:
A print processing apparatus realizes high speed processing of input data which includes various types of drawing objects such as images, graphics and characters. In the apparatus, input data generated by an input data generating unit is converted into intermediate data in an intermediate data generating element. An intermediate data order controlling element rearranges intermediate data pieces based on overlap therebetween and classifies them into groups, in each of which the data pieces can be processed in parallel. A group ID indicating a group for parallel processing, a hardware configuration ID and so on are assigned to the intermediate data piece. A rasterizing unit receives configuration data from a configuration data administering element, if necessary, in accordance with the hardware configuration ID assigned to the intermediate data piece, and rewrites a function of a reconfigurable rasterizing element under the control of the reconfiguration controlling element. The rasterizing unit rasterizes the intermediate data into dot data and provides it to an outputting unit.
摘要:
An image drawing apparatus wherein the processing time and the memory capacity are reduced and jaggy is reduced to improve the image quality. A command received at an image data inputting section is sent to a vector production section, in which, when the command is a font, it is converted into vector data using data stored in a font data storage section. A graphic edge list production section produces, from the vector data, an edge list processed in the magnification of n times. The edge list is referred to in units of n scanning lines by a gray scale processing section, by which a new edge list with which a portion determined to be an edge of a figure is to be drawn in a half tone when necessary is produced. The second edge list is successively processed by a clipping processing section and an edge list merging section and then converted into raster data, which are outputted to an outputting apparatus such as a printer.
