A digital color copier includes: a toner concentration storage which, as to a multiple number of developer blocks into which the developer that circulates in the developer device is virtually divided across the image forming width, stores the detected toner concentration of each developer block, detected by the toner concentration detector, separately for every developer block; a toner consumption predictor for predicting the first predicted toner consumption of the toner that is expected to be consumed and/or was consumed from the developer of every developer block during the first circulation, based on the developer's speed of conveyance in the developing device and the print processing speed; a toner concentration estimator for estimating, for every developer block, the toner supply point estimate as the toner concentration at the point where toner is supplied, by subtracting the first predicted toner consumption from the associated detected toner concentration and setting up a toner supply target value of the toner to be supplied from the toner supply device to the developing device in accordance with the predicted toner consumption during the second circulation of the developer inside the developing device that follows the first circulation.
摘要:
A pixel count section calculates a coverage rate corresponding to toner consumption. A control coefficient value setting section determines, based on the coverage rate, a stop threshold value representing reference concentration for toner replenishment and replenishment extension time. A magnetic permeability sensor measures permeability representing toner concentration in a housing portion. A toner concentration control section starts toner replenishment when an output value from the magnetic permeability sensor varies from a value less than a start threshold value to the start threshold value or above, and stops toner replenishment after lapse of replenishment extension time from the time at which an output value varied from a value greater than the stop threshold value to the stop threshold value.

In a case where the density correction condition of an image output section is satisfied while a job is being executed, density correction means performs density correction while the job is being executed or after the execution of the job. On this occasion, if there is a job on standby for printing in an image memory, this job is executed in the image formation condition (i.e. a correction amount stored in a current correction amount storing section) determined before the density correction. In the meanwhile, a job which is stored after the density correction is executed in a latest image formation condition (i.e. a correction amount stored in a latest correction amount storing section) which is figured out by the aforesaid density correction.

A semiconductor integrated circuit device includes a non-volatile memory having a pseudo pass function of returning a pass as a status even if a bit error reaching an allowable number of bits occurs after at least one of write or erase sequence is completed. The non-volatile memory includes an issue timing control section for controlling timing of issuing the pseudo pass function.

An image processing apparatus of the present invention includes: a signal correction means which corrects, in an RGB color space, RGB tone data which is RGB image data; and a comparison section which compares (i) a tonal value of a white point which is neither an origin nor maximum tonal values of R, G, and B in the RGB color space, and where tonal values of R, G, and B are identical to one another, with (ii) respective tonal values of R, G, B of the RGB tone data. (A) In case where the tonal values of R, G, and B are determined to be larger than the white point, the signal correction means corrects the tonal values of R, G, and B to be close to the white point. (B) In case where the tonal values of R, G, and B of the RGB tone data is determined to be smaller than the white point, the signal correction section corrects they tonal values of R, G, and B of the RGB tone data to be away from the white point. As a result, undercolor processing is precisely executed while the color reproducibility in a highlight is maintained.

An image processing apparatus includes: a document type automatic classification section which determines whether input image data is image data for a text document or not; a newspaper document classification section which determines whether the input image data is image data for a newspaper document or not; a segmentation process section which identifies a page-background region in the input image data; and a color correction section for, if the input image data is classified as the text document and but not the newspaper document and if a page-background removal process is to be performed to the input image data, performing a first page-background removal process to the image data, but if the input image data is classified as the text document and the newspaper document, not performing the first page-background removal process to the image data. This makes it possible to prevent deterioration of visual sharpness of the text in the document image printed on the newspaper.
摘要:
In a color conversion section 10a, a mode judging section 31 judges a mode in effect: a copy mode or a printer mode, according to a mode judging signal. When the copy mode is identified, the mode judging section 31 supplied RGB data to a first color conversion process section 32, and the first color conversion section 32 carries out a first color conversion process in which a transitional color conversion value, which is color-transited from a precise color conversion value and a memory color conversion value, is set as a color conversion value with respect to memory color corresponding data. When the printer mode is identified, the mode judging section 31 supplies the RGB data to a second color conversion process section 33, and the second color conversion process section 33 carries out a second color conversion process in which the memory color conversion value is set as a color conversion value with respect to the memory color corresponding data.
