A recording apparatus includes a recording unit, first and second sheet discharge portions to which recorded products each recorded with an image are discharged, an acquisition unit, a determination unit, and a reception unit. The recording unit records the image by imparting recording materials. The acquisition unit acquires a recording job instructing recording of the image. The determination unit determines, in a case where sheet discharge destination information included in the recording job indicates the first sheet discharge portion, whether a recorded product of an n-th page is dischargeable to the first sheet discharge portion, wherein n is greater than or equal to one. The reception unit receives, in a case where a result of the determination by the determination unit is that recorded product is not dischargeable to the first sheet discharge portion, an instruction about recording of the n-th page from a user.

An image processing apparatus includes a memory and circuitry. The memory is configured to store a result of inspection. The inspection includes: comparison of a sample image data and a first read image data that is data of an image formed on a recording medium and read; and determination whether the image indicated by the first read image data is abnormal. The memory is configured to store the result of inspection in association with the image determined as an abnormal image. The circuitry is configured to receive second read image data from a discarding apparatus. The circuitry is configured to specify image data according to which an image is formed, based on the abnormal image stored in the memory and the second read image data received. The circuitry is configured to instruct formation of the image according to the image data specified.

A measuring device includes a first roller pair, a colorimetric unit, a second roller pair, a third roller pair, a motor, and a torque limiter. The third roller pair is driven at a first speed before a trailing end of the sheet with respect to a sheet feeding direction passes through the first roller pair and is driven at a second speed higher than the first speed after the trailing end of the sheet passes through the first roller pair. The first speed is set so as to be equal to the peripheral speed of the first roller pair. The second speed is set so as to be equal to a peripheral speed of the second roller pair in a state in which a slip of the torque limiter is not caused.

A finisher apparatus includes an accumulator to register a print medium of a print job in preparation for a finishing operation, memory to store an attribute of the print job, and a processor coupled to the accumulator and the memory. The processor is to execute instructions. The instructions are to control the accumulator based on the attribute of the print job.

A bitmap processing system for creating digital documents on a digital printing press by a fulfiller includes a fulfiller operated raster image processor that receives customer application Page Description Language (PDL) job files containing information for creating the digital documents and generates bitmaps in accordance with the files and a fulfiller operated editor that modifies the bitmaps so that the resulting documents process more efficiently in production steps downstream of a printing process.

A set of computer-readable instructions, when executed by a computer in an information processing device, causes the information processing device to perform: a setting process; and in response to receiving a print instruction in which a cut print setting is set: a generation process; and a transmission process. The setting process sets the cut print setting for printing an image on a sheet and dividing the printed sheet at a center position thereof. The generation process acquires image data representing a target image to generate processed image data representing a processed image in which a gap area is arranged within a range including the center position. No colorant is deposited in a region on a sheet corresponding to the gap area during the printer printing the processed image on the sheet. The transmission process transmits print data based on the processed image data and a cut command to the printer.

A reading apparatus includes a reading device and circuitry. The reading device reads a recording medium in a direction intersecting a conveyance direction of the recording medium. The circuitry detects a reference image for cutting processing of the recording medium, based on read information read by the reading device.
