摘要:
An image forming device, such as a color copying machine or a color printer, which processes an input image signal, thereby obtains an output image signal, and forms an output image on the basis of the output image signal. In the image forming device, an information input unit writes some information identifying the copying machine to an area in an information storing unit at the time when a power source is turned on for the copying machine for the first time after the assembly thereof. When the power source is turned on for a second and any subsequent times for the copying machine, the copying machine copies an original sheet in such a state of the machine that the information stored in the area of the information storing unit is added to the output image in the form of a pursuit image which it is hard or impossible to recognize with the human eyes.

An image forming apparatus comprises: an output part that outputs variable information varying in a time-dependent manner in the image forming apparatus; a first encrypt part that encrypts the variable information outputted from the output part using a first encrypt key read out from a memory; a second encrypt key create part that creates a second encrypt key according to the variable information outputted from the output part; a second encrypt part that encrypts inherent information for specifying the image forming apparatus using the second encrypt key created by the second encrypt key create part; a generate part that generates code data according to the variable information encrypted in the first encrypt part and the inherent information encrypted in the second encrypt part; and an image form part that forms on a recording member a code image based on the code data generated in the generate part.

A developing device includes a developer bearer facing a latent image bearer, to rotate and supply developer to the latent image bearer, and a developer regulator to regulate an amount of the developer on a surface of the developer bearer. The developer regulator is in contact with the surface of the developer bearer. In the developing device, a ratio of a ten-point mean roughness of the developer regulator to a volume average particle diameter of the developer is not greater than 3.5%. The ratio is defined as Rzjis/Dv×100, where Rzjis represents the ten-point mean roughness measured in a nip-adjacent portion of a face of the developer regulator opposing the developer bearer, and Dv represents the volume average particle diameter of the developer. The nip-adjacent portion is adjacent to and downstream a downstream end of a regulation nip in a rotation direction of the developer bearer.

The developer container includes a rotator that is rotated in the container body, a sequence of gears disposed outside the developer container that transmits a torque to the rotator, and a container guiding portion that fits with a main body side guiding portion and guides the developer container in a direction in which the developer container is attached to a mounting portion of an image forming device main body. A first gear included in the sequence of the gears is movable between an operating position where the first gear engages with a second gear and a retracted position where the first gear is retracted. On a surface on which the container guiding portion is disposed, a part of the container guiding portion is disposed within a projected area of the first gear being disposed at the operating position.

The image forming apparatus includes: a random number information generation part that generates random number information; a first encryption part that encrypts the random number information generated by the random number information generation part with using a first encryption key; a second encryption key generation part that newly generates a second encryption key from the random number information generated by the random number information generation part; a second encryption part that encrypts specific information for identifying the apparatus with using the second encryption key generated by the second encryption key generation part; a code data creation part that creates code data based on encrypted random number information encrypted by the first encryption part and encrypted specific information encrypted by the second encryption part; and an image forming part that forms a code image based on the code data created by the code data creation part on a recording medium.

A method and an apparatus for producing a container packing filler are provided, which ensure that a net can be correctly and speedily rolled up into a bulk or ball shape. A stretchable tubular net (N) is fitted around a columnar support member (6). Then, a distal portion of the net is forcibly folded radially outward or inward by a plurality of roller belts (30) disposed circumferentially of the net (N), while the roller belts (30) are moved toward a net proximal side axially of the net (N), whereby the net (N) is rolled up radially outward or inward with the distal portion thereof being forcibly folded by circular rotation and axial movement of the roller belts (30) to form an annular roll portion (C).

An image processing system which reads, in pixel units, an image on an original document using a scanner, processes the read image data, and outputs the processed image data. The image processing system includes a system for recognizing a circular image of a specific color. The recognizing system includes a specific color detecting unit for detecting a specific color on an image on an original document; a first image detecting unit for detecting, in the image detected by the specific color detecting unit, images of the specific color at positions spaced from each other by a first distance corresponding to a diameter of a circle on a line extending in a fast scan direction; a second image detecting unit for detecting intersections of the circle having the diameter equal to the first distance and a line separated by a predetermined distance from a center of the circle in a slow scan direction when the specific color images are detected by the first image detecting unit; and a specific color image determining unit for determining that a contour containing the images of the specific color, detected by the three detecting units, is circular on the basis of the detection of a pitch line of a second distance by the second image detecting unit.

A powder container is provided. The powder container includes a powder storage and a conveyer. The powder storage stores a powder to be used for image formation and has a vent hole to pass air between an inside and an outside of the powder storage. The conveyer conveys the powder inside the powder storage. The vent hole is on an upper surface of the powder storage facing the conveyer.
