Patent number: 7474440Abstract: When an output unit to produce output is specified through an instruction terminal 11 and original data is input to a color proof generation section 12, a color conversion section 13 acquires a color conversion parameter corresponding to the specified output unit from a color conversion information storage section 14 and performs color conversion processing for the original data so as to accomplish precise color reproduction in the specified output unit. A rasterizing section 15 expands the original data after undergoing the color conversion processing into raster data while using an enormous number of fonts in a font storage section 16. The raster data provided by the rasterizing section 15 is transmitted from a communication section 17 through a network 4 to the specified output unit. If a remote system 2 or 3, which receives the raster data, prints out on output unit 21 or 31, a color proof whose color is reproduced precisely can be provided.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2006Date of Patent: January 6, 2009Assignee: Fuji Xerox Co., Ltd.Inventors: Tetusya Kiyosu, Satoshi Suzuki, Hirofumi Kuramoto, Nobuhisa Katoh, Eisuke Kawasaki, Mari Kodama, Ryuichi Ishizuka, Yasushi Nishide, Kouichi Kawahara

Patent number: 7251049Abstract: When image synthesis using form data, for which a pass code has been set, or merge data, for which a password has been set, is completed, the synthesized data is encoded and held. Thereafter, a client terminal is notified by e-mail that image synthesis has been completed. Thereafter, when a request for output is inputted, collation of passwords is carried out. If the passwords match, decoding and printing-out of encoded synthesized data, or transmission of the encoded synthesized data is carried out.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 2002Date of Patent: July 31, 2007Assignee: Fuji Xerox Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kazunori Kurokawa, Kouichi Kawahara, Yoshihiro Ohshima, Yasuaki Mitobe, Junko Ohuchi, Takanori Okuoka

Publication number: 20050036170Abstract: An image processing apparatus and an image forming apparatus are characterized in that appropriate settings can be smoothly performed, and a connected job can be edited without losing an original print job. The memory stores a job including image data or drawing data output from an image processing terminal and a print setting condition, and an image processing component performs predetermined image processing to the job. A job connection component sets connection information for connecting plural jobs stored in the memory and a print setting condition of the connected job, and a print process execution component executes a print process of the connected job on the basis of the connection information and the print setting condition.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 10, 2004Publication date: February 17, 2005Applicant: FUJI XEROX CO., LTD.Inventors: Takanori Okuoka, Kouichi Kawahara, Mari Kodama, Satoshi Yoshikawa, Kazunori Kurokawa

Patent number: 6847415Abstract: A flat display unit has a chassis combining a display panel and circuit boards for driving the display panel into a unit in which the display panel and the circuit boards are mounted on respective opposite surfaces of the chassis. The chassis is provided with a bank (i.e., sidewall) extending about the periphery of opposite main surfaces of the chassis including at least the surface on which the display panel is mounted, perpendicularly to that surface and surrounding the periphery of the display panel 3, and hence protecting the display panel without requiring a protector, as is conventionally used during the processes of assembling, testing and transporting thereof. The chassis is also provided with through-holes and optionally with a cut-out, which are formed in the periphery of the chassis, for facilitating interconnections between the display panel and the circuit boards by flexible cables which pass therethrough.Type: GrantFiled: August 16, 1999Date of Patent: January 25, 2005Assignee: Fujitsu LimitedInventors: Hiroshi Yoshimura, Morimitsu Iwai, Kouichi Kawahara

Patent number: 5783459Abstract: A metal wiring is fabricated for a semiconductor device by fabricating an metal layer made of, a aluminum alloy on a semiconductor substrate through an insulation layer and an undercoating layer for the metal layer, optically patterning a resist layer for producing a resist pattern, radiating ultraviolet rays onto the resist pattern for curing the resist pattern so that the resist pattern becomes a cured resist pattern, etching the metal layer with reactive gas including chlorine by using the cured resist pattern as a mask so as to produce a metal wiring under the cured resist pattern and ashing the cured resist pattern by down flow ashing of oxygen gas including hydrogen and/or hydrogen monoxide, producing the metal wiring to the semiconductor device, wherein the curing by radiation with ultraviolet rays reduces the amount of decomposed polymer on the pattern resist, and therefore on the metal wiring, which would otherwise have formed as a result of this down flow ashing with oxygen.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 1994Date of Patent: July 21, 1998Assignees: Fujitsu Limited, Kyushu Fujitsu Electronics LimitedInventors: Tamotsu Suzuki, Kouichi Kawahara
