Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes an input unit, a display unit, an image forming unit, a storage unit, a first-page print execution information setting unit, and a print control unit. The first-page print execution information setting unit stores information in the storage unit. The information relates to execution of printing the first page of a job on a sheet on a manual feed tray. If printing on a long nonstandard-size sheet is selected, the print control unit causes the display unit to display an indication prompting a user to identify the sheet size and requests the image forming unit to start printing the sheet on the manual feed tray after a print start instruction. If the information is stored in the storage unit, the print control unit skips the step of displaying the indication and requests the image forming unit to start the printing on the sheet on the manual feed tray.
Abstract:
The image comparison portion calculates a plurality of pixel SSIM values of a first image and a second image and a representative SSIM value which is an overall SSIM value of both images. The image comparison portion identifies one or more count target SSIM values that belong to a specific range below a first threshold value among the plurality of pixel SSIM values when the representative SSIM value is equal to or greater than the first threshold value. The image comparison portion adds up a number of pixels for each level of the one or more count target SSIM values in both images with a weight according to each level of the one or more count target SSIM values to calculate a weighted sum. The image comparison portion determines that the two images do not match when the weighted sum exceeds a second threshold value.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes an application subsystem and a platform subsystem. The application subsystem includes one or more first independent processes that provide a user with different functions of the electronic device, a first process monitoring circuit that detects a handling-required state of the first independent process, and a system state managing circuit that reboots the first independent process in which the handling-required state has occurred. The first process monitoring circuit that has detected the handling-required state transmits an error notification to the system state managing circuit. The system state managing circuit that has received the error notification reboots the first independent process in the handling-required state.
Abstract:
An electronic apparatus includes a controller circuit being configured to detect a first input information, the first input information being information input in an input device by a user, create a first image and display the first image on a display device, the first image being an image created based on the first input information, obtain the first input information and the first image, detect, from the storage device, second input information being same as the first input information, determine a similarity degree between the first image created based on the first input information and a second image in association with the second input information detected from the storage device, and where the similarity degree between the first image and the second image is smaller than a threshold, output a result that the similarity degree is smaller than the threshold.

Abstract:
An image comparison apparatus includes an image comparison portion. The image comparison portion generates a shadow target image which is an image of a portion of a shadow in a target image. The image comparison portion generates a shadow reference image corresponding to the shadow target image in a reference image. The image comparison portion matches a tone of the two shadow images. The image comparison portion generates a non-shadow target image in the target image and a non-shadow reference image in the reference image. The image comparison portion matches a tone of the two non-shadow images. The image comparison portion generates the target image from which the shadow has been removed by synthesizing the shadow target image and the non-shadow target image. The image comparison portion compares the reference image and the target image from which the shadow has been removed.

Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a printing processing unit, a paper jam detection unit, and an operation display unit. The printing processing unit performs printing on a plurality of index sheets having index labels in different positions. The paper jam detection unit detects a paper jam in the plurality of index sheets. The operation display unit displays, when the paper jam is detected, a paper jam handling pattern selection screen for selecting a paper jam handling pattern of the printing processing unit.
Abstract:
An image comparison apparatus includes an image comparison portion configured to compare a reference image with a target image. The image comparison portion calculates a degree of blur of each of the reference image and the target image. The image comparison apparatus reduces a difference in the degree of blur between the reference image and the target image to within a specific range by adding blur to one of the reference image and the target image that has a smaller degree of blur. The image comparison apparatus compares the reference image and the target image whose difference in the degree of blur has been reduced to within the specific range.
Abstract:
Provided is an image forming apparatus having a control circuit. The control circuit includes a standard application execution circuit, an apparatus control platform, and a standard application control circuit. The standard application execution circuit has the standard application execution service that executes a standard application. The apparatus control platform includes control service, apparatus control execution service, and an apparatus control management service. The control service controls hardware on an operating system. The apparatus control execution service executes the control service with an interface that is an executing procedure of the control service. The apparatus control management service instructs a call of the control service to the apparatus control execution service. The standard application control circuit manages a state of the standard application and provides an interface for using the hardware resources of the standard application execution service.
