摘要:
A personal computer has a print image developing means and a data compression means including a fixed rate compression. A color printer has a data extension means, a color correction means, a gamma correction means, a first halftoning means, an image area segmentation means, and a second halftoning means. The transmission time of a print image can be shortened necessarily to less than a constant time, and further, since an enormous memory for extension is unnecessary, a low cost printer can be provided.

In a halftoning unit of a laser printer and the like, a high speed, high density and high gradations halftoning is realized by multi-value implementation by clustered dot concentrated dither halftoning (known as a sub-matrix method) and PWM distributing gradation among the plurality of halftone dots with a small memory and circuit. For this purpose, the value of the difference between an input gradation value ni and a threshold value nc, &Dgr;n=ni−nc, is shortened within a range of 0 to &Dgr;h and the lower s bit of &Dgr;h is removed by a round-down or round-up process. Meanwhile, a threshold array is generated from an extended threshold pattern obtained by combining threshold patterns of 2s whose threshold interval is &Dgr;h, i.e. &Dgr;Ah×K, &Dgr;h×K+1, . . . , &Dgr;×K+2(s−1). Thereby, a halftone dot dither process in which the PWM gradation increases distributively among the 2s dots may be realized with a small scale memory and circuit.

An LED lighting device can compensate a brightness change and a color change caused by a temperature change and exhibit an in-plane uniform luminance and color. A lighting device includes: at least one line connected in parallel, a constant voltage source for applying a constant voltage to the line, an ON/OFF controller, and a current detector for measuring a value of current flowing in the line. The line is formed by one or more light-emitting diodes and a switch for turning ON/OFF the current flowing in the light emitting diodes connected in series. According to the current value of each of the lines measured by the current detector, the ON/OFF controller controls the ON/OFF period of the switch of each of the lines.

In order to reduce degradation of the processing performance of the data processor due to use of a part of the main memory as a display frame buffer, when an access request to the memory 200 is generated from the CPU 310, the memory controller 400 holds it once, requests the display controller 560 to stop the access to the memory 200 which is in execution, when data to the access executed already is transferred from the memory 200, holds it, and transfers the access request from the CPU bus 310 which is held by the memory 200. When the access from the CPU bus 310 ends, the memory controller 400 restarts the access stopped in the display controller 560 and passes the held data to the display controller 560.

A display apparatus is arranged to have pixels, each of which has a RGBW (Red, Green, Blue and White) wavelength distribution characteristic, located two-dimensionally. The display apparatus includes an input unit for inputting a signal for controlling a using ratio of a W signal, a color signal converting unit for calculating a RGBW driving signal from a RGB input signal and the W using ratio. The RGBW signal is calculated so as to control the contribution of the W signal to the image quality. The display apparatus switches the display from the contrast-highlighted display in a relatively bright lighting condition to the color-reproducibility-highlighted display in a relatively gloomy lighting condition.
