Abstract:
An image-information acquiring unit acquires the image information divided at least in one of a main-scanning direction and a sub-scanning direction. A supply control unit calculates basic-supply patterns of a supply amount of toner and controls the supply amount at a supply point in a developing unit using a toner supply pattern combined with the basic-supply patterns that eliminate temporal variation in toner density of the developer, at the specific point, due to development of the latent image.
Abstract:
In an image data processing device, correcting of input color image data, converting the input data to monochrome image, and judging whether the image expressed by the input color image data is a color image or a monochrome image, are all performed simultaneously; the corrected color image data and the converted monochrome image data are stored; and based on the judgment, any one of the color image data and the monochrome image data stored are transmitted to an external device via a communicating unit.
Abstract:
An image processing device, an image processing system, an imaging device, an image processing method, and a recording medium storing program code. The image processing device includes a receiver configured to receive a first image and a second image, a memory configured to store a joining position at each one of a plurality of portions between the first image and the second image received by the receiver, and circuitry configured to evaluate, for each of the plurality of portions, validity of the joining position in a past stored in the memory, and generate a composite image based on the first image and the second image received by the receiver and the joining position in the past stored in the memory on a site where the validity meets a criterion. The method includes reading a past joining position at each one of a plurality of portions between a pair of images.
Abstract:
An image processing apparatus in which an image obtained by image reading can be printed or used in another apparatus in a state identical to the appearance of the image when displayed. A first image correction unit converts image data inputted through an image reading unit into standard image data that can be shared by a plurality of types of output destinations, and generates image area separation information through image area separation judgment of the image data. The converted image data is associated with the generated image area separation information and both are stored in an image storage unit. An image editing unit edits the stored image data, and a second image correction unit converts the image data to image data for an image display unit as an output destination, while a third image correction unit converts the image data to image data for an image forming unit as an output destination.
Abstract:
An inspection apparatus, inspection system, inspection method, and inspection control program stored in a recording medium, each of which sets a reference point in a master image and a read image read from a printed image, which is to be used for detecting the positional shift between the read image and the master image, based on determination whether a pattern previously added to the printed image for detecting the positional shift is available or can be used to effectively detect the positional shift.
Abstract:
An inspection apparatus obtains a correction parameter for correcting the positional shift between a previously read image and a master image, and corrects one of a currently read image or a master image using the correction parameter for the previously read image, before comparing between the currently read image and the master image to detect the positional shift in the currently read image.

Abstract:
An image inspection method and apparatus for inspecting images output on sheets including a reference white plate disposed at a position of the transport route of sheet while facing a scan position for scanning a sheet; a contact glass disposed opposite the reference white plate; an image scanning device fixed facing the scan position to conduct a scanning operation through the contact glass, a noise detector to detect a first noise image in a blank area of the inspection sheet by scanning the blank area of the inspection sheet, and a second noise image in the reference white plate by scanning the reference white plate; and a stain source determination unit to determine a noise origin from the contact glass or the reference white plate.
Abstract:
An image test apparatus includes a color-image-data acquiring unit that acquires color image data being data of an image to be formed with a color material; a master-image-data generating unit that converts the color image data depending on transparent image data being data of an image to be formed with a transparent color material, thereby generating master image data; and an image testing unit that tests, using the master image data, a test image data which is generated by optically reading a print image from a printed matter on which the print image based on the color image data and the transparent image data has been printed.
