Abstract: A computer interface for a stencil printer includes a data receiving section which receives printing data or program rewriting data from a computer, a data processing section which converts the printing data from the computer into stencil making data according to a running program, and a video data output section which outputs the stencil making data to a stencil printer with stencil making system. The data processing section is provided with a nonvolatile memory consisting of a main program block which is rewritable and stores a main program and a start-up program block which is not rewritable and stores a start-up program. A main program rewriting section rewrites a main program in the main program block when the main program which has been stored in the main program block is invalid or when the data receiving section receives program rewriting data from the computer.

Abstract: A data input device fetches print data containing raster image data, which has been formed by a computer, and first resolution data, which represents resolution of the raster image data having been formed by the computer. A printer resolution reading device reads second resolution data representing resolution, with which a stencil printer can print, from the stencil printer. A resolution converting device carries out resolution conversion for converting the raster image data, which is contained in the print data having been fetched by the data input device, into raster image data having the resolution, with which the stencil printer can print, in accordance with the first resolution data and the second resolution data. A data output device forms output data in accordance with the raster image data having been obtained from the resolution conversion and feeds the output data into the stencil printer.

Abstract: An interface system for a personal computer includes a data input device which receives data including a header portion and a data portion. The data is analyzed to determine whether the data includes environmental data or print data depending on a header code in a header portion. The environment data and the print data comprise separate data packets. Page data is prepared based on any environment data contained in the header, and the environment data is stored to a nonvolatile storage device. An output device outputs the page data based on the environment data stored to the nonvolatile storage device.

Abstract: In an ink supply control device for a stencil printing machine which controls the supply of printing ink to an ink reservoir formed in a printing drum according to a signal produced from an ink amount detecting device which produces a first signal when the amount of ink stored in the ink reservoir is detected to be greater than a prescribed level, and a second signal when the amount of ink stored in the ink reservoir is detected to be less than the prescribed level, time durations of the first and second signals over a certain time interval or a certain interval of the rotation of the angle of the printing drum are evaluated as a basis for determining true insufficiency of the level of the printing ink in the ink reservoir through an arithmetic computation to the end of preventing erroneous detection by the ink amount detecting device from adversely affecting the control of the supply of printing ink in the ink reservoir. Such erroneous detection of the level of ink is typically caused by disturbances of short durations in the surface of the ink in the ink reservoir.

Abstract: An image is processed by using an error diffusion method of propagating density distribution errors in pixels around a pixel to be noted. A method includes the steps of calculating thresholds (Th.sub.1, Th.sub.2) of densities corresponding to the area ratio between the pixels; selecting a pixel to be noted (f) which are different in the area ratio from each other; calculating errors (E) produced in the peripheral pixels according to the distances from the peripheral pixels to the noted pixel and areas of the individual peripheral pixels; adding the propagated errors to a density of the noted pixel so as to make a rearrangement (f') on the density of the noted pixel; comparing the rearranged density of the noted pixel with the thresholds to obtain a corresponding level (G) represented in a binary form, and obtaining density distribution errors (e).
