    摘要: The present invention is structured in such a manner that, when multivalued pixel data which constitutes a multivalued image are supplied, a predetermined number of interpolated pixel data are generated and inserted between the supplied and successive pixels. At this time, the gradient of each of the interpolated pixels is calculated and determined in accordance with the gradient of the supplied neighboring multivalued pixels. Thus, the image is recorded on a recording medium in accordance with image data including the interpolated pixel. As a result, print information processed so as to be printed by a low resolution printer can be printed with the same size and high quality as when printed by a high resolution printer according to the present invention.

    摘要: This invention provides an information recording apparatus, which can save the consumption amount of a toner without thinning out an image in units of pixels, and can realize smoothing processing with high image quality. In input data, a pixel corresponding to an edge portion is subjected to smoothing processing. Data of a black pixel which is not subjected to smoothing processing is recorded while saving toner by controlling the print pulse width or the print pulse number upon recording of the black pixel on the basis of a print density command.

    摘要: An image processing apparatus which generates an output image based on inputted print data, includes a resolution converting device which converts image data corresponding to the inputted print data at a first resolution into image data having a second resolution. The image conversion device includes a plurality of arithmetic processing units each of which performs computations which differ from the others, with one of the plurality of arithmetic processing unit being selected in dependence upon a recording density set for recording the output image. In other aspects, the resolution conversion computation can be input into the device from an external device. In situations where the generated output image is recorded on a pulse-width-modulated device, such as a laser beam printer, it is possible to control the pulse-width based on the density set for recording.

    摘要: An image processing apparatus where plural line memories store first image information corresponding to a first recording density based on input image data for plural lines, and a logical circuit included in a decision circuit determines a pixel data to be interpolated corresponding to the pixel position of second image information when the first image information is converted to the second image information in accordance with the stored first image information for plural lines. A logical circuit also included in the decision circuit detects an predetermined pattern in accordance with the stored image information for plural lines when the pixel data to be interpolated is determined, calculates a logical expressions for predetermined pattern diffusing processing, and determines a value of the pixel to be interpolated to diffuse the predetermined pattern in the second image information. With the above structure image information for a lower recording density is converted to information for a higher recording density, where half-tone images in high quality can be obtained.
