摘要:
There is provided an image reading apparatus that can read a plurality of images without troublesome operations by a user, in which a small-size light source with a small electric power consumption is used as an illumination light source used for reading an image of a transparent original. A surface illumination light source having a size large enough to illuminate one image among a plurality of images included in a transparent original is moved sequentially to positions at which the illumination light source can illuminate the respective images. Each image is read while the illumination light source is kept stationary at the position of the image. In addition, at the position of each image, the transparent original is pressed against an original table of the image reading apparatus.

An image processing apparatus includes a processing unit for processing an image signal into which an original document, after being exposed to light, is photoelectrically converted, a compression module for compressing image information processed through the processing unit, a memory for storing image data compressed by the compression module, a control unit for setting a diversity of image processing modes, and a predicting module for predicting an image compression rate used by the compression module. The predicting module predicts the image compression rate of an image after being processed according to the image processing mode set by the control unit.

A sheet stapling apparatus includes a storage unit for storing sheets ejected out from an image forming apparatus, and a stapling unit for stapling to the sheets stored in the storage unit. The sheet stapling apparatus can execute a first bending process for bending the feet of a staple which were pierced through the sheets to the inside and a second bending process for bending the feet of the staple which were pierced through the sheets to the outside. In the facsimile mode or the printer mode, the second bending process is executed.

A carrier for electrostatic image development includes: a carrier body including a core and a resin coating layer on the core; and first spherical silica particles having a volume-average particle diameter of from 50 nm to 300 nm that adhere to the surface of the carrier body at a ratio of from 0.001 parts by weight to 0.100 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of the carrier body.
摘要:
An image scanning apparatus is capable of successively scanning a plurality of documents arranged on a document plate in an efficient manner by moving a sensor unit over the documents in a sub-scanning direction. When the plurality of documents arranged on the document plate is scanned, the motion of the sensor unit is selectively controlled in such a manner that after completion of scanning one document, the sensor unit is returned to its home position before starting scanning a next document, the sensor unit is temporarily stopped before starting scanning the next document, or the sensor unit is moved backward by a particular distance before starting scanning the next document.
摘要:
The invention provides a developer having at least a toner, an aeration ratio (AR) of the developer measured by a powder rheometer being in a range of about 5.0 to about 10.0. It is preferable that the developer further contains an external additive of silica particles having a small diameter. The invention further provides a process cartridge having at least: a photoreceptor; and a developing device that comprises plura developer storage portions and that makes visible a latent image formed on the photoreceptor by using the developer. The invention further provides an image forming apparatus having at least the process cartridge.
