    摘要: An image processing apparatus is controlled in accordance with the status of an interface and the contents of data. Specifically, so long as the number J of jobs, which are executed by the copier system at the same time, and the number N of channels, which are required by a target job during one cycle, are obtained, dynamic paper feeding timing Wd can be acquired from ideal paper feeding timing Ws, while taking delay time X into account. The preceding paper feeding is performed using paper feeding timing Wd. Further, based on predicted data, a check is performed to determine whether image transmission will be successful without a buffer memory being used. When it is determined that the buffer memory is not required for the image transmission, image data are received without the buffer memory being obtained. When it is determined that the buffer memory is required for the image transmission, an adequate buffer memory is acquired for the reception of image data. In addition, a check is performed to determine whether the height of an obtained bandwidth is satisfactory. When it is determined that the height of the bandwidth is satisfactory, a printer engine is so controlled that it performs printing at the maximum process speed (minimum paper interval).

    摘要: A sheet original feeding apparatus comprises a sheet original stacking tray on which sheet originals to be treated are stacked as an original stack. A sheet original separator separates and supplies the sheet original one by one from the bottom of the original stack stacked on the sheet original stacking tray. A sheet original feeding path is provided for directing the sheet original separated by the sheet original separator. A sheet original feeder feeds in a forward direction the sheet original directed by the original feeding path to an image reading portion. The sheet original feeding means is also operable in a reverse direction, and the sheet original feeding path is arranged at one side of the sheet original feeder. A first sheet original ejecting path is further provided for returning the sheet original fed in the reverse direction by the sheet original feeder to the sheet original stacking tray from a same side of the sheet original feeder as the sheet original feeding path. A second sheet original ejecting path returns the sheet original fed in the forward direction by the sheet original feeder to the sheet original stacking tray. The second sheet original ejection path is arranged at a side opposite to the sheet original feeder means as the sheet original feeding path.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes a feeding unit for sequentially feeding a plurality of originals to an exposure plate, an exposure unit, which is movable along the exposure plate, for exposing the original on the exposure plate, an image forming unit for forming on a sheet an image on the original that is exposed by the exposure unit, and a control unit for providing either a first copying operation, in which the original is shifted by the feeding unit while the exposure unit is halted to perform copying, or a second copying operation, in which the exposure unit is shifted while the originals that are fed by the feeding unit are halted on the exposure plate. When the control unit executes a first mode in (e.g. copies>1) which the second copying operation is performed following the first copying operation, the feeding unit feeds the originals while maintaining a first constant distance between a leading end of a preceding original and a leading end of a succeeding original, and wherein, when the control unit executes a second mode (e.g. copies=1) in which only the first copying operation is performed, the feeding unit feeds the originals while maintaining a second constant distance between a trailing end of a preceding original and a leading end of a succeeding original.
