Abstract
An image data generation apparatus includes circuitry configured to refer to image processing association information in which a plurality of image defect types is associated with a plurality of different image processing, respectively; apply, to image data, image processing selected from the plurality of different image processing in accordance with an image defect type included in the image data; and generate processed image data from the image data.
Claims18
An image data generation apparatus, comprising:
- circuitry configured to
- determine a particular image defect type present in a printed image;
- store image processing association information in which a plurality of image defect types is stored in association with a plurality of different image processing operations, respectively;
- store image defect association information in which the plurality of image defect types is stored in association with a plurality of different image patterns, respectively;
- cause an image forming device to form a particular image pattern selected from the plurality of different image patterns in the stored image defect association information in accordance with the particular image defect type;
- select particular image processing from the plurality of different image processing operations in the image processing association information, in accordance with the determined particular image defect type present in the printed image;
- and
- generate processed image data by applying the particular image processing to image data corresponding to the particular image pattern, wherein in the processed image data, an image defect of the particular image defect type is more recognizable than in the image data corresponding to the particular image pattern.
An image data generation method, comprising:
- determining a particular image defect type present in a printed image;
- storing image processing association information in which a plurality of image defect types is stored in association with a plurality of different image processing operations, respectively;
- storing image defect association information in which the plurality of image defect types is stored in association with a plurality of different image patterns, respectively;
- causing an image forming device to form a particular image pattern selected from the plurality of different image patterns in the stored image defect association information in accordance with the particular image defect type;
- selecting particular image processing from the plurality of different image processing operations in the image processing association information, in accordance with the determined particular image defect type present in the printed image;
- and
- performing the particular image processing on image data corresponding to the particular image pattern to generate processed image data in which an image defect of the particular image defect type is more recognizable than in the image data corresponding to the particular image pattern.
A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a method, the method comprising:
- determining a particular image defect type present in a printed image;
- storing image processing association information in which a plurality of image defect types is stored in association with a plurality of different image processing operations, respectively;
- storing image defect association information in which the plurality of image defect types is stored in association with a plurality of different image patterns, respectively;
- causing an image forming device to form a particular image pattern selected from the plurality of different image patterns in the stored image defect association information in accordance with the particular image defect type;
- selecting particular image processing from the plurality of different image processing operations in the image processing association information, in accordance with the determined particular image defect type present in the printed image;
- and
- performing the particular image processing on image data corresponding to the particular image pattern to generate processed image data in which an image defect of the particular image defect type is more recognizable than in the image data corresponding to the particular image pattern.
