  • Publication number: 20160283829
    Abstract: A print control apparatus includes a generating section, a converting section, a calculating section, and a selecting section. The generating section generates intermediate data by analyzing print data, the intermediate data being data in a stage preceding raster data that is a group of pixels. The converting section converts the intermediate data generated by the generating section into the raster data. The calculating section calculates an expected processing time, the expected processing time being an expected time to be spent on converting a predetermined amount of intermediate data generated by the generating section into raster data. The selecting section selects, as a printing speed of a print mechanism unit, any one of plural predetermined speeds by using the expected processing time calculated by the calculating section.

  • Publication number: 20150338810
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a transport unit, an image forming unit, a detecting unit, a measuring unit, and a changing unit. The transport unit transports continuous paper. The image forming unit forms an image onto the continuous paper transported by the transport unit. The detecting unit transmits a detection signal every time the number of times a pulse signal, which is generated when the transport unit transports the continuous paper, is detected reaches a predetermined reference value. The measuring unit measures an amount of the continuous paper transported by the transport unit based on the detection signal from the detecting unit. The changing unit changes the reference value of the detecting unit in accordance with a transporting speed at which the continuous paper is transported by the transport unit.

  • Publication number: 20150334265
    Abstract: A print system includes a controller and a printer. The controller transmits image data of an image in which pixels are arranged in a main scanning direction and a subscanning direction, and transmits subscanning-direction line information which is information about a predetermined subscanning-direction line. The printer expands the image data transmitted from the controller into print data for printing, and extracts extraction information in the subscanning direction from the print data so as to compare the subscanning-direction line information with the extraction information. The extraction information corresponds to the transmitted subscanning-direction line information.
