Control method for forming an image, image-forming device, and storage medium

An image-forming device comprising:

• a memory containing a computer program for performing a control method for forming an image;
• and
• a processor coupled to the memory and, when the computer program is being executed, configured to:
• receive a pending image-forming job, and obtain pending image-forming data and image-forming configuration information in the pending image-forming job, the image-forming configuration information including a total page number corresponding to the pending image-forming job;
• perform image-forming operation on an image-forming medium according to the pending image-forming data and the image-forming configuration information;
• and
• under satisfied predetermined conditions, control a discharge distance of at least one page of the image-forming medium of the pending image-forming data to be different from a discharge distance of other pages of the image-forming medium, or control a discharge distance of at least one page of the image-forming medium of the pending image-forming job to be different from a discharge distance of the image-forming medium of a previous image-forming job, including:
• counting a page number of the image-forming medium on which the image-forming operation has been completed;
• and
• when the page number of the image-forming medium on which the image-forming operation has been completed is a set page number, at a predetermined time after the image-forming medium of the set page number starts to output to a medium output port of the image forming device, changing a paper discharge driving speed to control the image-forming medium of the set page number to be output to a discharge distance different from a discharge distance of other pages in the medium output port.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising:

• a stored program that, when being executed, controls a device installed with the storage medium to perform a control method for forming an image, the method including:
• receiving a pending image-forming job, and obtaining pending image-forming data and image-forming configuration information in the pending image-forming job, the image-forming configuration information including a total page number corresponding to the pending image-forming job;
• performing image-forming operation on an image-forming medium according to the pending image-forming data and the image-forming configuration information;
• and
• under satisfied predetermined conditions, controlling a discharge distance of at least one page of the image-forming medium of the pending image-forming data to be different from a discharge distance of other pages of the image-forming medium, or controlling a discharge distance of at least one page of the image-forming medium of the pending image-forming job to be different from a discharge distance of the image-forming medium of a previous image-forming job;
• wherein:
• the at least one page of the image-forming medium is a page number of a preset ratio at beginning or end of the pending image-forming job, the preset ratio being greater than 0 and less than 1, and the at least one page being greater than one page;
• and
• the predetermined conditions including:
• before starting the pending image-forming job, the image-forming device has completed a preceding image-forming job within a predetermined time.
