IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240176558 titled 'IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an image forming apparatus that stores job information and image data as a job history, and records errors that occur during the storage process. In case of errors during the storage of image data with text information, the apparatus stores the data in a different format and records information about the error.

  • The image forming apparatus stores job information and image data as a job history.
  • Errors that occur during the storage process are recorded by the apparatus.
  • In case of errors during the storage of image data with text information, the data is stored in a different format.
  • Information about the error is recorded by the apparatus.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in various industries where image processing and storage are essential, such as printing, graphic design, and document management.

Problems Solved

This technology helps in maintaining accurate job histories and error records, ensuring that important image data is not lost or corrupted during processing.

Benefits

- Improved data integrity and reliability - Enhanced error tracking and troubleshooting capabilities - Streamlined image processing and storage workflows

Potential Commercial Applications

"Enhancing Image Processing and Storage Efficiency in Document Management Systems"

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the use of error recording mechanisms in image processing devices to track and manage errors during data storage and processing.

=== What are the specific image formats supported by the apparatus? The abstract does not specify the specific image formats supported by the apparatus.

=== How does the apparatus handle errors in the conversion processing of image data? The abstract mentions that the apparatus stores image data in a different format when errors occur during the conversion processing, but it does not provide details on the specific steps taken to handle these errors.


Original Abstract Submitted

an image forming apparatus that executes a job for output processing of image data includes a storage unit configured to store job information about an executed job and image data corresponding to an output based on the job as a job history corresponding to the job, and a recording unit configured to record information about an error that has occurred when the job history is stored, wherein, in conversion processing for storing the image data in an image format with text information as the job history, when an error occurs in the processing of a part of pages included in a target job, the storage unit stores image data corresponding to the job in the job history in a predetermined format different from the image format with the text information, and the recording unit records information about the part of the pages as the information about the error.
