Abstract: The image forming apparatus includes a printing device, an image reading device, a job management unit, and a document detection processing unit. The image reading device reads an image in a predetermined range in which a document can be arranged, as a read image. The job management unit acquires a front side image and a back side image of a card document, and prints the front side image and the back side image on both sides of a print sheet using the printing device. The document detection processing unit specifies a document image area of the front side image and a document image area of the back side image. The job management unit selects a larger size as the common image area size when a difference in size between the document image areas of the front side and the back side exceeds a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: A conveyance path for a document (D) has a first conveyance path (R1) that turns back midway and a second conveyance path (R2) that extends rectilinearly. When the document (D) is of a particular type, if a setting to use the first conveyance path (R1) has been made, a control section (4) has a warning message (MS1) displayed.

Abstract: According to a processing period for OCR processing of image data for character recognition for a given page, the image processing section determines whether or not to generate image data for character recognition for a next page subsequent to the given page in accordance with an image quality setting different from that set for the given page. Upon determining generation in accordance with an image quality setting different from that set for the given page, the image processing section determines the image quality setting for the next page based on document type and size of the given page of the original document. The image processing section generates image data for character recognition for the next page in accordance with the determined image quality setting.

Abstract translation: 根据用于给定页面的用于字符识别的图像数据的OCR处理的处理周期，图像处理部分根据图像质量设置确定是否为给定页面之后的下一页生成用于字符识别的图像数据 与给定页面的设置不同。 在根据与针对给定页面的图像质量设置不同的图像质量设置确定生成时，图像处理部分基于原始文档的给定页面的文档类型和大小来确定下一页面的图像质量设置。 图像处理部根据确定的图像质量设置生成用于下一页的字符识别的图像数据。

Abstract: A conveying path for a document (D) includes a first conveying path (R1) that turns back midway, and a second conveying path (R2) that does not turn back midway. When the first conveying path (R1) is used, a first side is read and the document (D) is discharged with the first side facing downward. When the second conveying path (R2) is used, a second side is read and the document (D) is discharged with the second side facing downward. When the second conveying path (R2) is used, a warning message (MS1) is displayed.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes: a document reading section; a character detection section detecting, based on image data of a document obtained through reading by the document reading section, characters included in an image formed on the document; a character concentration detection section detecting concentration of the characters detected by the character detection section; a character direction detection section detecting a direction of the characters whose concentration detected by the character concentration detection section is in a preset specified concentration range; and a document direction determination section determining, based on the direction of the characters detected by the character direction detection section, a direction of the image formed on the document as a document direction, wherein the character direction detection section, upon determination that the image on the document is a monochromatic image, defines, as the specified concentration range, a concentration range higher than predefined first concentration.

Abstract: The image forming system includes a user terminal device, an image forming apparatus, and a management server. The management server acquires document data from the user terminal device, specifies a current consumable item remaining amount in the image forming apparatus based on latest consumable item remaining amount information for the image forming apparatus, specifies a consumable item requirement amount in a case where a document based on the document data is printed by the image forming apparatus, sends a warning message to the user terminal device if the consumable item requirement amount is greater than the current consumable item remaining amount, and stores the document data so as to be downloadable to the second location if the consumable item requirement amount is equal to or less than the current consumable item remaining amount. The image forming apparatus downloads the document data from the management server and prints the document.

Abstract: An reading device includes: a reading region setting section setting a reading region set under an inclination correction by an inclination correction section to be larger than a reading region set without the inclination correction, an image reading section reading a document in the reading region to generate image data, and a determination section defining a target region from a whole region of the image data and analyzing a portion of the image data corresponding to the document in the target region thereby determining an attribute of the image data, defining, without the inclination correction, a region obtained by inwardly narrowing the whole region of the image data by a predefined first region as the target region, and defining, under the inclination correction, a region obtained by inwardly narrowing the whole region of the image data by a second region larger than the first region as the target region.
