摘要:
The image reading device of the present invention reads images by using a visible light and an invisible light that are generated by a single light source. The fluorescent lamp is provided with a pair of internal electrodes and a pair of external electrodes. It generates a visible light with a higher intensity than an infrared light when switching a feeder circuit on to generate a discharge between the external electrodes. On the other hand, it generates an infrared light with a higher intensity than a visible light when switching another feeder circuit on to generate a discharge between the internal electrodes. Therefore, the fluorescent lamp has a reading mode using the visible light, and a reading mode using the infrared light. And, a lamp controller selectively switches the emission mode of the fluorescent lamp.

An image reading apparatus includes: illuminating means for illuminating an original with light; a lens forming an image of reflected light from the original, the lens having a resolution characteristic in which a resolution in a vertical scanning direction in an image-reading wavelength region at a field angle in a vicinity of an end of the original is lower than a minimum resolution in an image-reading wavelength region at a field angle on an inner side of the vicinity-of the end of the original; light shielding means for shielding part of the reflected light such that a pupil diameter in the vertical scanning direction in the reflected light from the vicinity of the end of the original is reduced; and photoelectrically converting means for converting the reflected light partly shielded by the light shielding means and undergone image formation by the lens into an electrical signal.

After light transmitted through platen glass is incident on a lens and focused, the light is transmitted through a parallel flat plate and imaged in a CCD image sensor. The resolving power of the CCD image sensor is 600 dpi in this case and one pixel is 8 &mgr;m. A parallel flat plate is provided with a function for displacing all rays incident on the plate in parallel. The quantity of parallel displacement differs depending upon each wavelength. Therefore, lateral chromatic aberration can be reduced to the extent that it is ignorable (approximately {fraction (1/10)} of pixel size) by making reflected light outgoing from the lens and having lateral chromatic aberration incident on the parallel flat plate.

An image forming apparatus includes a raster image data generating unit, a halftone image data generating unit, a size control unit, an image forming unit and a flash fixing unit. The raster image data generating unit generates raster image data of a plurality of color components from document data. The halftone image data generating unit generates halftone image data from the raster image data. The size control unit controls minimum halftone dot sizes of the halftone image data. The image forming unit forms color toner images to be fixed on a recording medium using color toners corresponding to the plurality of color components, based on the halftone image data whose minimum halftone dot sizes are controlled by the size control unit. The flash fixing unit emits flash light from a flash light source to the recording medium to fix the color toner images transferred onto the recording medium.

The present invention is directed to an environment in which a safe program having high thread isolation can easily be constructed, and the effective utilization of resources can be achieved when concurrently processing a plurality of client requests. More specifically, a client request 101 is transformed into a common format, and stored in a queue 125 in the form of packet information. A control unit 127 reads the packet information, and instructs a thread control unit 131 to create a thread. A thread object 141 referenced only from the created thread is created by copying a thread object template 149 prestored in the system. Client requests are divided into three types: creation of an object, utilization of an object method, and deletion of an object, and a thread is created only during the execution of a client request.

An image reading apparatus includes a light source with a first luminescent portion that outputs light with a first wavelength range and a second luminescent portion that outputs light with a second wavelength range, the wavelength ranges being different from each other; a light-receiving portion that receives light reflected from an original irradiated by the light source; a scanning portion that shifts a reading position of the original in a vertical scanning direction by changing a relative position between the original and the light-receiving portion; a switching portion that alternately turns on the first and second luminescent portions when the scanning portion shifts the reading position, wherein a vertical scanning resolution for a first data obtained when the first luminescent portion is turned on is independently set from a vertical scanning resolution for a second data obtained when the second luminescent portion is turned on.
