Abstract: A system is constructed by connecting a plurality of digital copying machines (stations). having a common structure, and a master station 1001 and slave stations 1002 to 1004 are defined in accordance with their addresses. The master station 1001 issues a status request command to the slave stations at a predetermined time interval in order to gather information on the status of each slave station. The status which can be used in the system are recognized, depending upon the information, and a user selects the station or stations to be used. One of the station is made to read an original image, and the image is printed by the selected station or stations. The above constructed image processing system results in good expandability.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus having a function for detecting a specific original decides the degree of similarity between the image represented by input image signals and the image of a specific original which is not to be allowed to be copied, e.g., currency. The image processing apparatus determines the content of the image processing in accordance with the result of the decision, and processes the input image signals on the basis of the determined content.

Abstract: In a mode of continuously forming different images, such as a serial page copy mode and an enlargement serial copy mode, which of the images are to be formed, and how they are to be formed is previewed prior to the start of a copy operation. At an operation unit an operator sets a selected mode, for example, the serial page copy mode, by sequentially depressing a preview key and an image reading key to supply image data to a preview processing unit which displays the output image on a CRT prior to printing. The output images may be displayed in the order to be copied. The output images may also be collectively displayed on the same screen, or the continuous display during preview may be temporarily interrupted or resumed at a desired timing.

Abstract: An image forming system which freely combines functions of a plurality of devices connected on a network in accordance with necessity, and a control system for the system. Each of the plurality of devices stores information indicating functions which can be provided by the device in advance. A functional unit which serves as a supervisor collects these stored information and analyzes a combination of functions to perform operation designated by a user, based on the collected information. Then the supervisor combines the functions based on the result of analysis and performs the desired processing operation by the combination of functions.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus capable of displaying a preview image which has close resemblance to an original image or an edited image automatically applies image processes, such as magnification/compression, rotation, and displacement, to the preview image on the basis of the size of an image and the size of a display screen. Image size information and a reference position mark are displayed after being synthesized. A preview image is thus displayed which may easily be checked by an operator.

Abstract: An image processor matches a hue of an output image with a hue of a preview image. The image processor generates preview image data to confirm on a display, an output color image generated by an image forming unit. The image processor incudes an input unit which inputs from the image forming unit density data representative of the output color image, the density data depending on the output characteristics of the image forming unit. A conversion unit converts the input density data into luminance data in a predetermined color space, and a color correction unit corrects color of the luminance data in accordance with the display characteristics and observation conditions of the display. The preview image data is generated dependent on the type of display and color temperature of the display.
