Patent number: 8773725Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a latent image generating unit and a background image generating unit. The latent image generating unit generates a latent image using both of a first color component to be printed with a first color material and second color components to be printed with second color materials having an optical property different from an optical property of the first color material, or generates the latent image using only the second color components. The background image generating unit generates a background image, which serves as the background of the latent image, using only the second color components when the latent image generating unit uses both of the first color component and the second color components, or generates the background image using both of the first color component and the second color components when the latent image generating unit uses only the second color components.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2013Date of Patent: July 8, 2014Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventor: Koji Kinoshita

Patent number: 8085444Abstract: A leak-prohibited image to be subjected to leak prohibition is comprised of dots DT so that two dots are included in an 8×8 matrix at a resolution of 600 dpi. The leak-prohibited image is formed as a computer terminal acquires image data, converts the image data to an image comprised of discrete microdots DT which cannot be resolved by copying, and outputs the converted image. Because the leak-prohibited image cannot be copied even if an image including the leak-prohibited image is copied, copy-originated information leak can be prohibited. Synthesizing a concealment image having a regularly discrete pattern with such a leak-prohibited image makes it difficult to view the leak-prohibited image from other directions than a front, thus prohibiting information leak by peeping.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2007Date of Patent: December 27, 2011Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventor: Koji Kinoshita

Patent number: 8072649Abstract: An image displaying medium, a method of generating composite image displaying data, and an image generating system are disclosed. A color image on the image displaying medium is composed of plural mesh points whose shape is an ellipse having linearity. The mesh point has, for example, a color of cyan, magenta, yellow, or black in the CMYK system. The color image is a composite image composed of a displaying image and a latent image. When the composite image is viewed through a lenticular lens, a moire pattern having thick vertical lines corresponding to the displaying image and a moire pattern having thin oblique lines corresponding to the latent image appear.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2006Date of Patent: December 6, 2011Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventor: Koji Kinoshita

Patent number: 8045232Abstract: An image display medium displays an image including a first region having a first composite image. The first composite image includes a first display image and a first latent image. The first display image includes at least one of a first halftone dot image and a first line image having a first linearity. The first halftone dot image and the first line image have such densities as are not reproduced by copying. The first latent image includes at least one of a second halftone dot image and a second line image having a second linearity. The second halftone dot image and the second line image have such densities as are not reproduced by copying. The first and second linearities produce different moiré patterns when the first display and the first latent images are enlarged by a first common optical system.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2007Date of Patent: October 25, 2011Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventor: Koji Kinoshita

Publication number: 20110235120Abstract: An information providing server has information on plural printers. The information providing server provides a user of a portable terminal with the information on the plural printers by sending the information on the plural printers to the portable terminal. The portable terminal sends an e-mail to which a file to be printed is attached to a printer selected by the user. Each of the plural printers has a plurality of print conditions to which different e-mail addresses are respectively assigned. The printer that has received an e-mail specifies a print condition from an e-mail address indicating the destination of the e-mail. The printer then prints the file attached to the received e-mail under the specified print condition.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 10, 2011Publication date: September 29, 2011Applicant: RICOH COMPANY, LTD.Inventors: Koji Kinoshita, Yohichiroh Higashizaki

Patent number: 7788318Abstract: A user sends a printing request of a cost estimate to an electronic file management server, applying a user terminal. The electronic file management server that received the printing request, generates printing data of the cost estimate. Next, the electronic file management server allots URL to the generated printing data, and stores the printing data, and URL in a document data storing unit. Then, the electronic file management server generates a two-dimension bar code including the URL, allotted to the printing data, and the data concerning the printing condition, and sends it to the user terminal. Then, a printing apparatus obtains via a bar code reader, the read data of the two-dimension bar code output to a display unit, obtains printing data from the electronic file management server, applying the URL extracted from the two-dimension bar code, and performs printing.Type: GrantFiled: October 10, 2003Date of Patent: August 31, 2010Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventors: Koji Kinoshita, Akio Hiraoka

Patent number: 7672018Abstract: An image is generated by performing area coverage modulation to express a halftone color according to a gross area of dots displayed in a pixel of the image. The image is generated in such a manner that the halftone color is expressed with a selected one of dither patterns corresponding to respective predetermined densities, each of the densities being determined by the gross area of dots calculated in view of shapes of the dots.Type: GrantFiled: April 5, 2007Date of Patent: March 2, 2010Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventor: Koji Kinoshita
