Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes plural module creating units, plural wrapper creating units, an extracting unit, a calling unit, and an argument processing unit. The module creating units create processing modules that are obtained by instantiating different types of image processing classes by using functions. The wrapper creating units create wrappers that call the module creating units and that pass arguments specified in a pointer form to the module creating units. The extracting unit extracts, from image processing information, class names of the image processing classes corresponding to the individual processing modules and the arguments unique to the image processing classes. The calling unit converts the extracted class names and calls the wrapper creating units to which the converted class names are given. The argument processing unit stores the extracted arguments in an array, specifies an initial address of the array, and passes the initial address to the created wrappers.

Abstract: A job execution system includes one or more transmission apparatuses and a job receiving apparatus. The one or more transmission apparatuses add identification information for identifying a group of jobs to be executed in succession to a job and transmit an execution request of the job. The job receiving apparatus receives the transmitted execution request of the job. The job receiving apparatus includes a job queue and a job registration unit. The job registration unit makes a correspondence between the received execution request and the identification information, and registers said received execution request and said identification information in the job queue. When the received execution request has the same identification information which is previously registered in the job queue, the job registration unit registers the received execution request immediately after another execution request of a job having the same identification information.

Abstract: There is provided a diffractive element including a first member 2, which includes a first resin 2a and has a predetermined refractive index, and a second member 3, which has the same refractive index as the first member 2 having the predetermined refractive index in one wavelength of light and has a refractive index different from the first member 2 having the predetermined refractive index in the other wavelength of light. The first member 2 and the second member 3 are alternately arranged within an incidence plane of the two wavelengths of light, thereby constituting a diffraction grating. The second member 3 includes a second resin 3a to dissolve an organic matter 5 having optical absorption in a predetermined wavelength range at a molecular level, whereby the refractive index of the second member 3 is formed.

Abstract: When the size output for an image is equal to or smaller than a predetermined value (e.g., index printing), a printing apparatus performs an image expansion/reduction process by using an interpolation method whereby high speed processing is enabled while an inferior image quality is provided, or when the output size is greater than a predetermined value (e.g., the normal printing of a single sheet), employs an interpolation method for a high quality image to perform the expansion/reduction. Further, when the output image size is equal to or smaller than the predetermined value, the printing apparatus 1 skips the noise reduction process and the sharpening process to increase the processing speed.
