摘要： An image processing apparatus includes a setting unit and a correcting unit. The setting unit sets a gloss level of an image to be formed by forming plural toner images using a transparent toner and plural color toners having different colors and by fixing the plural toner images onto a recording medium in such a manner that the plural toner images are placed on top of one another on the recording medium. The correcting unit corrects image data defining density values per pixel of the toner images formed using the plural color toners of the respective colors so that a total density value that is a sum of a density value per pixel of the toner image formed using the transparent toner and density values per pixel of the toner images formed using the plural color toners of the respective colors may not exceed a predetermined threshold.

摘要： An image processing apparatus includes a setting unit, a generating unit, and a converting unit. The setting unit sets a gloss level of each of plural areas into which an image is divided. The image is formed by forming plural toner images having different colors using plural first toners and at least one second toner having at least one same color as the first toners and by fixing the plural toner images onto a recording medium so as to be superimposed on one another. The generating unit generates multi-level image data for each of the first toners and the at least one second toner in accordance with the gloss levels set by the setting unit. The converting unit converts multi-level image data of toners having the same color into binary image data. The converting unit also converts multi-level image data of toners having different colors into binary image data.

摘要： Disclosed is a battery 10 including: an electrode group including a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator; an electrolyte; and a battery container accommodating the electrode group and the electrolyte. The battery container includes an accommodating portion 16 having an opening, and a lid sealing the opening of the accommodating portion 16. The battery container includes a liquid-retaining portion 16a retaining the electrolyte therein below the liquid surface of the electrolyte, and a gas-retaining portion 16b retaining gas therein above the liquid surface of the electrolyte. The liquid-retaining portion 16a of the side portion of the battery container is thinner than the gas-retaining portion 16b of the battery container. This suppresses scattering of fragments etc. in the event of rupture of a secondary battery due to an increase in the internal pressure. The safety of the secondary battery is thus increased.

摘要： The object of the invention is to provide an image processing apparatus that greatly enhances color conversion precision by considering in-plane uniformity and nonlinearity such as a gradation characteristic and a multiple transfer characteristic in an image formation device when color variation in a plane of the image formation device is considered in color conversion. An arithmetic section converts a signal L* to an image recording signal K of the image formation device based upon a lightness L* signal input from an image input device, a recorded position coordinate signal x in a horizontal scanning direction on paper and the rotation angle signal y of a photo conductor showing a recorded position coordinate in a vertical scanning direction on the photo conductor from the image formation device in consideration of color variation caused due to an image formation process on the photo conductor in the image formation device and the signal L*. This color conversion can be made using n-dimensional DLUT for example. The image recording signal K is output to the image formation device and an image is formed.
