Abstract
A multi-function peripheral includes a touch panel monitor. The touch panel monitor includes a display panel and a touch panel overlaid on the display panel. In a handwriting mode, an intermediate image corresponding to an original image is displayed on the display panel. When touch input to the touch panel is detected in this state, a touch image based on the touch input is superimposed on the original image, and a new image is generated.
Claims5
A multi-function peripheral comprising
- a touch panel monitor including a display panel and a touch panel overlaid on the display panel,
- wherein, in a handwriting mode, an intermediate image corresponding to a display area which is a part, or an entirety of an original image generated by scanning an original document is displayed on the display panel,
- the intermediate image is generated by scaling the displayed original image X1/X2 times where X1 is a horizontal resolution of the displayed original image, and X2 is a horizontal resolution of the display panel, and
- when touch input of a user to the touch panel is detected, a touch image based on the touch input is generated, and the touch image is superimposed on the display area of the original image to generate a first new image,
- an overlay image is generated by scaling the touch image X1/X3 times where X1 is the horizontal resolution of the displayed original image, and X3 is a horizontal resolution of the tough image,
- the overlay image is superimposed on the displayed original image for printing or faxing the generated first new image, and
- wherein, in a stamp mode, when touch input of the user to the touch panel is detected in the state where the intermediate image is displayed on the display panel, a second new image is generated by superimposing a stamp image on a portion corresponding to the touch input of the original image.

A processing method of a multi-function peripheral,
- the multi-function peripheral including a touch panel monitor including a display panel and a touch panel overlaid on the display panel,
- the processing method comprising:
- displaying, on the display panel, an intermediate image corresponding to a display area which is a part or an entirety of an original image generated by scanning an original document in a handwriting mode,
- generating the intermediate image by scaling the displayed original image X1/X2 times where X1 is a horizontal resolution of the displayed original image, and X2 is a horizontal resolution of the display panel, and
- monitoring touch input to the touch panels and generating a touch image based on touch input when the touch input of a user to the touch panel is detected;
- and
- generating a first new image by superimposing the touch image on the displayed original image,
- wherein an overlay image is generated by scaling the touch image X1/X3 times where X1 is the horizontal resolution of the displayed original image, and X3 is a horizontal resolution of the tough image,
- the overlay image is superimposed on the displayed original image, and
- wherein, in a stamp mode, when touch input of the user to the touch panel is detected in the state where the intermediate image is displayed on the display panel, a second new image is generated by superimposing a stamp image on a portion corresponding to the touch input of the original image.
