Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes an image data transfer unit that transfers image data having a predetermined number of pixels to a print head. A clock signal transfer unit transfers a clock signal in synchronization with the number of pixels of the image data, the clock signal having the same number of pulses as the number of pixels of the image data. A transfer control unit that modifies a transfer time of the image data compared with a clock signal transfer time according to a margin to be formed.
Claims21
An image forming apparatus comprising:
- an image data transfer unit that transfers image data having a predetermined number of pixels to a print head;
- a clock signal transfer unit that transfers a clock signal in synchronization with the number of pixels of the image data, the clock signal having the same number of pulses as the number of pixels of the image data;
- and
- a transfer control unit that modifies a transfer time of the image data compared with a clock signal transfer time according to a margin to be formed.
An image forming apparatus comprising:
- an image data transfer means that transfers image data having a predetermined number of pixels to the print head;
- a clock signal transfer means that transfers a clock signal in synchronization with the number of pixels of image data, the clock signal having the same number of pulses as the number of pixels of the image data;
- and
- a transfer control means that modifies a transfer timing of the image data compared with a clock signal transfer time based on the margin to be formed.
A method for forming an image comprising:
- transferring image data having a predetermined number of pixels
- transferring a clock signal in synchronization with the number of pixels of the image data, the clock signal having the same number of pulses as the number of pixels of the image data;
- and
- modifying a transfer time of the image data compared with a transfer time of the clock signal according to a margin to be formed.
