Label issuing apparatus and system that generate print data of multiple code symbols representing same information
A label issuing system includes a label issuing apparatus and a label printer. The label issuing apparatus includes a printer interface and a processor. The processor is configured to generate print data for an image including a first region with first information and a second region with a first code symbol and a second code symbol each representing the first information but being of different sizes. The processor controls the printer interface to transmit the print data to the label printer. The label printer is connectable to the printer interface and configured to print the image on a label based on the print data received through the printer interface symbol.
Computer-readable medium, information processing device, and method for rearranging image data
A non-transitory computer-readable medium stores computer-readable instructions executable by a processor of an information processing device that includes a user interface and a display. The instructions are configured to, when executed by the processor, cause the information processing device to accept, via the user interface, an operation to specify a rearrangement condition for a plurality of pieces of image data to be obtained, obtain image data of a single sheet, determine an arrangement order for arranging first image data and second image data in accordance with the rearrangement condition specified by the accepted operation, the first image data being image data of one or more sheets obtained earlier than the second image data, the second image data being the image data of the single sheet, and display, on the display, images contained in the first image data and the second image data, to be arranged in the determined arrangement order.
Image forming apparatus, control method thereof, and storage medium
An object is to match the texture of a printed material, in addition to the tint, between different printing devices. In order to implement this object, a printed material output by a destination device is scanned and whether a certain area in image data obtained by the scan is an area printed in K color on the printed material or an area printed in CMY color mixture is determined. Then, based on the determination results, a printing parameter is determined.
IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD FOR IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS
An image forming apparatus on which a replaceable container storing a recording material is mounted includes an image forming unit configured to form an image using the recording material, a determination unit configured to determine whether the container satisfies a predetermined condition, an acquisition unit configured to acquire an amount of the recording material used for image formation in a predetermined period and stored in the container determined as a container that satisfies the predetermined condition, a memory configured to accumulate information indicating the amount of the recording material acquired by the acquisition unit, and a prediction unit configured to predict a number of days about replacement of the container, based on the information indicating the amount of the recording material and accumulated in the memory.
Image processing apparatus, control method, and storage medium for executing print processing using a password including selecting a personal identification code type that indicates a purpose for using the password
There is provided an information processing apparatus, in which a purpose of a password can be selected from a plurality of purposes, and a print job, in which the password is used for the selected purpose, is generated.
PRINTER AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM STORING COMPUTER-READABLE INSTRUCTIONS FOR PRINTER
In a case where a first sheet paper having a first size is contained and a second sheet paper having a second size is not contained, a printer sends capability information including first size information indicating that the first size is contained and second size information indicating that the second size is contained to a terminal device. The printer receives image data and selection information indicating that a target size has been selected, and in a case where the selection information indicates that the second size has been selected as the target size, the printer executes the predetermined process on the first sheet paper, and in a case where the selection information indicates that the first size has been selected as the target size, the printer does not execute the predetermined process on the first sheet paper.
Printing apparatus and computer program product for managing sheet attribute information for print jobs
A control apparatus includes a storing unit, a determining unit, a first notification unit, a selection unit, and a second notification unit. The storing unit stores attribute information of sheets to be stored in sheet holding units. The determining unit determines whether attribute information of sheets to be used by a job corresponds to the stored sheet attribute information. The first notification unit notifies, in a case where the determining unit determines that the attribute information does not correspond, a user that the attribute information does not correspond to the sheet attribute information. The selection unit selects the stored sheet attribute information to change the attribute information of sheets to be used by the job. The second notification unit notifies, in accordance with selection of the sheet attribute information, the user that the attribute information of sheets to be used by the job corresponds to the stored sheet attribute information.
Image forming apparatus that automatically changes start time of feeding print medium in response to state, and recording medium
An image forming apparatus includes a printer, a drawing data generating circuit, and a medium feeding circuit. The drawing data generating circuit generates, from print data, drawing data that causes the printer to execute a print job. The medium feeding circuit feeds the print medium to the printer. The medium feeding circuit executes: a first feeding stage in which the print medium moves to a specific position; and a second feeding stage in which the print medium moves from the specific position to the printer. The medium feeding circuit starts the first feeding stage after the drawing data is generated by the drawing data generating circuit when the image forming apparatus is in specific states, and starts the first feeding stage before the drawing data is generated by the drawing data generating circuit when the image forming apparatus is not in the specific states.
Image forming apparatus, image forming method, and computer-readable non-temporary recording medium storing image forming program
The image forming apparatus includes a color conversion processing unit that has an input profile for color conversion to first image data which is image data of a device-independent color space, and an adjustment target profile for color conversion to second image data which represents gradation values of the plurality of color materials, and a simulation profile for color-converting the second image data to third image data of the device-independent color space, a profile adjustment unit that adjusts the adjustment target profile in accordance with the user input, determines whether or not a color difference before and after the adjustment of the adjustment target profile is smaller than a preset threshold value, and updates the adjustment target profile by using the adjustment target profile after the adjustment when the profile adjustment unit determines that the color difference is smaller than the threshold value, and a color difference calculation unit.
Image forming system and image forming apparatus
An image forming system includes an image forming apparatus configured to form an image on a sheet, a plurality of accessory apparatuses arranged side by side along a conveyance direction of the sheet, and a base station configured to wirelessly communicate with the image forming apparatus and the plurality of accessory apparatuses. The image forming apparatus includes one or more controllers configured to function as (i) a unit configured to acquire, from the base station, information that the base station acquires by wirelessly communicating with the plurality of accessory apparatuses, and (ii) a unit configured to output screen information for registering information about an arrangement order of the plurality of accessory apparatuses, based on the information acquired from the base station.
