A controller 60 of an image reading device 1 acquires a scanned image by reading a document. An image processor 30 generates an output image by applying to the acquired scanned image different image processes based on whether or not specific pixels, which are pixels with a pixel value greater than a white reference value, are contained in the scanned image.

The image reading device includes a reading section configured to read an image from a document, a control section configured to perform control related to the reading of the image from the document, a display section configured to display information, and a USB coupling section configured to couple with a USB cable. The control section control to switch to any one of a plurality of mode types. When a power source is turned on, a control section determines one of a plurality of mode types based on USB negotiation, and then makes a liquid crystal display section display information that enables identifying the decided-on mode.

An information processing apparatus capable of communicating with an image forming apparatus via a network, the image forming apparatus being capable of communicating via facsimile, includes a second controller circuit that receives image data transmitted via facsimile, facsimile transmission information including information of one or more items about the facsimile transmission, and additional information including additional information of one or more items about the image data, in association with each other, from the image forming apparatus via the network, and determines a storage area to store the image data based on information of at least one item out of the information of the one or more items included in the facsimile transmission information and/or based on information of at least one item out of the information of the one or more items included in the additional information.

An image reading device includes an original document transport device, a first reading module and a control portion. When the control portion performs the light source turning-on confirmation processing of the first reading module, the control portion performs first opening/closing determination processing for determining the state of the opening and closing of a cover member, light amount acquisition processing for turning on a light source so as to acquire light amount data after it is determined in the first opening/closing determination processing that the cover member is in a closed state, second opening/closing determination processing for determining again the state of the opening and closing of the cover member after the acquisition of the light amount data in the light amount acquisition processing and light amount determination processing for determining the light amount after it is determined that the cover member is in the closed state.

An image inspection system includes: a hardware processor that controls image formation by an image former based on a read image generated by reading, by a reader, a medium on which a patch is formed, wherein the hardware processor causes the image former to form, on the medium, a patch corresponding to an image formed on a medium by the image former.

Example embodiments of the present disclosure include image processing apparatus installed with a web browser that includes circuitry and an image processing device. The circuitry interprets content obtained from a web server connected to the image processing apparatus via a network, displays a screen based on the interpreted content, requests the web server to process according to a user input on the displayed screen, and requests the image processing device to perform predetermined image processing.

An image processing apparatus that is capable of calculating an appropriate replacement guide value of a part even in a case where the image processing apparatus operates under different operating modes. The image processing apparatus is capable of operating in a plurality of operating modes of different image forming speeds and has a replacement guide default value showing a guide for replacement of a part for each of the operating modes. A degree of wear of the part for each of the operating modes is calculated based on the replacement guide default value. The calculated degree of wear is, in a case where the operating mode is changed, converted to a degree of wear for the operating mode after the change, and a replacement guide value of the part in the operating mode is calculated after the change based on the converted degree of wear.

A sheet feeding sub tray is detachably attachable to a sheet loading stand of a sheet conveying device that includes a setting reference part on one end side of the sheet loading stand in a sheet width direction. The sheet feeding sub tray includes a small-size setting reference part disposed at a position closer to a center of the sheet loading stand in the sheet width direction than the setting reference part in a state in which the sheet feeding sub tray is installed to the sheet loading stand.

An image scanning method applied in an image scanning device capable of scanning a card. Record background values at the time of a card being without being in a scanning channel, and the background values recorded at the time of the card being without being in the scanning channel are regarded as preset values. Before the card is scanned, check whether the background values in the scanning channel conform to the preset values. Drive the card to move a distance Y. Check whether the background values in the scanning channel conform to the preset values. Preset a preset movement distance, check whether a movement distance of the card or a distance of accumulated movements of the card exceeds the preset movement distance. Display that the card is stuck. Stop checking and proceeding with an image calibration. Start scanning the card. Complete scanning the card and withdraw the card.

Embodiments include a method, computer-implemented method, and apparatus to provide local soft-copy access, local hard-copy access, remote or web-based access to information, text, and content articulated in a scroll. Indices are created and then utilized to locate and access text within the scroll. In addition, rulers are employed with the indices to locate indicia within the scroll, including accommodating scrolls of different archetypes.
