Abstract:
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.

Abstract:
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 an operating system (OS) thereof, which is separate from an OS of the image forming apparatus, to perform at least one of authentication and cryptographic data communication with a main body of an image forming apparatus by executing one cryptographic algorithm corresponding to a set state from among a plurality of pre-provided cryptographic algorithms, using the OS thereof. 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.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for stitching a plurality of images. The method includes capturing a first image and a second image; variably setting a position and size of a template for image stitching with respect to the captured first image or the captured second image, and determining stitch positions of the first image and the second image, based on the template that is variably set. In addition, the method includes stitching the first image and the second image, based on the determined stitch positions.
Abstract:
A method of converting a hybrid hard disk drive (HDD) to a normal HDD when a system is powered on depending on whether the total number of defective blocks in a non-volatile cache (NVC) exceeds a predetermined threshold. The method of converting a hard disk drive (HDD) from a hybrid HDD to a normal HDD where the HDD has a normal hard disk and a non-volatile cache includes the steps of determining whether a mode conversion flag is enabled during a power-on period. When the mode conversion flag is enabled, operating the HDD as a normal HDD. When the mode conversion flag is disabled, determining whether an operating mode of the HDD is a normal mode or a hybrid mode. When the operating mode of the HDD is in the normal mode, the HDD operates as a normal HDD. A determination is made when the HDD is in the hybrid mode as to whether the total number of defective blocks in the non-volatile cache is greater than a predetermined threshold. The HDD is operated as a hybrid HDD when the total number of defective blocks is not greater than the threshold. The mode conversion flag is enabled and the HDD is operated as a hybrid HDD when the total number of defective blocks is greater than the threshold.
Abstract:
A method of setting up a port of a network printing device automatically including determining whether a user inputs an internet protocol (IP) address of a host, and transmitting an IP address of the network printing device to the IP address of the host if the IP address of the host is inputted.
