09774762 · 2017-09-26 · ·

An image processing apparatus includes a receiving unit, a generating unit, and a determining unit. The receiving unit receives first image data. The first image data includes a first part corresponding to a manuscript and a second part corresponding to a non-manuscript. The generating unit generates second image data by processing the second part. The determining unit determines whether the manuscript is processed as a monochromatic image or a color image, based on the second image data. The determining unit outputs a result of the determination.

Printhead focus adjustment mechanism including an eccentric pin

A focus adjustment mechanism for adjusting a focus position of a printhead includes a rotatable pin that is rotatable around a pin axis. The rotatable pin includes a cam section located having a surface whose radial distance from the pin axis varies around its perimeter, and a gripping feature. An adjustment plate includes a gripping feature and is adapted to fit over and engage with the gripping feature of the rotatable pin such that the adjustment plate rotates together with the rotatable pin. A fastener fastens the adjustment plate to a support structure when the adjustment plate is positioned in a desired orientation. The printhead includes a frame feature which is pulled firmly against the cam section of the rotatable pin such that as the rotatable pin is rotated the frame feature rides on the surface of the cam section thereby adjusting the focus position of the printhead.

System and method for automated organization of scanned text documents

A system and method provides automated prediction of filenames and storage locations for scan files generated from a user's scan of their financial documents. A prediction model is generated for the user based on weighted values derived from preexisting filenames and preexisting storage locations for their stored electronic files. Text or images from each scan document is analyzed and weighted and compared to the user's prediction model and a suggested name and storage location is automatically generated. The suggestions are confirmed or corrected by the user prior to storage, and any corrections are used to update the user's prediction model.
